Good heavens...how can calling someone a Muslim be malicious? At least it shouldn't be in civilized society. I think his ties are an advantage in this day and age. I realize people will use this against him, but it really should be used for him and for multiculturalism. I believe by their traditions, if the father is Muslim, the children are considered to be as well. I do not say he is one, he is whatever he proclaims himself to be. But if he were one, it would be great. It is great that he has this as a major part of his heritage...mg
