Obama blames church for doing nothing to stop the African slave trade.
Obama was in the news yesterday. On his visit to Western Africa, he stopped off at the prison from where the slave traders shipped African slaves to the Americas. Obama said in his televised speech that he was told a church was built on the site of the prison and that it was a shame that Christians took part in enslaving Africans and shipping them to America.
Therefore, Obama was saying that Christianity was guilty of engaging in the slave trade, when the historical facts are that it was the Muslim Arabs who hunted down the Africans and conducted the slave trade. In fact, Obama's ancestors were Muslim Arabs.
So who invented this lie about a church conducting or condoning the slavery of Africans? And how could a US President believe it and then spread the lie?
Here is the URL of the video clip of Obama making the televised speech yesterday: click here.
I was going to imbed the video of Obama repeating the fabrication about the church conducting the African slave trade but it is too disgusting and unbelievable that Obama would go so far as to attack Christianity in this fashion.
