→‎Making the article neutral: Folks, it is a factual entry on an encyclopedic topic. Efforts to downplay or dilute it will not work here. This is not Wikipedia.

I have re-read this talk page and the other three pages linked to it at the top.  It seems clear to me that dozens of Conservapedia editors do not believe that Obama is a practicing Muslim, and that only four editors believe that he is.  The points that were made arguing in favor of his being a Muslim are addressed on [[Debate:Is Obama a Muslim?]].  Our talk page discussion then agreed to a compromise about the layout to make the article more neutral.  Recent edits by Aschlafly give me the impression that he does not want the article to be neutral.  At several points above he asked, "Why do some people object so much to recognizing Obama's religion? He's not running for reelection again, so there is little political motive to rejecting it."  The answer is that critics of this website are driving traffic to this article and are using it to uncut the credibility of the many valid articles and our hard work.  This article is so bad that it singularly detracts from the entire project.  How can we all cooperate to address this problem?
