Obama lectures ISIS on Islamic theology

Despite professing his faith in Jesus Christ, President Obama feels qualified to lecture ISIS on Islamic doctrine. Jim Hoft of Gateway Pundit caught the pretentious donning of the garb of theologian:

Narcissist President Barack Obama lectured ISIS today on how to practice their religion of Islam. Obama says ISIS speaks for no religion. He obviously doesn’t follow their tweets.
From the White House website:

Jim Foley’s life stands in stark contrast to his killers. Let’s be clear about ISIL. They have rampaged across cities and villages — killing innocent, unarmed civilians in cowardly acts of violence. They abduct women and children, and subject them to torture and rape and slavery. They have murdered Muslims — both Sunni and Shia — by the thousands. They target Christians and religious minorities, driving them from their homes, murdering them when they can for no other reason than they practice a different religion. They declared their ambition to commit genocide against an ancient people.

So ISIL speaks for no religion. Their victims are overwhelmingly Muslim, and no faith teaches people to massacre innocents. No just God would stand for what they did yesterday, and for what they do every single day. ISIL has no ideology of any value to human beings. Their ideology is bankrupt. They may claim out of expediency that they are at war with the United States or the West, but the fact is they terrorize their neighbors and offer them nothing but an endless slavery to their empty vision, and the collapse of any definition of civilized behavior.

Remember when Obama spoke of “my Muslim faith”?

Snopes earnestly maintained that in context, Obama was speaking of others’ attributing Islamic faith to him, and that is certainly one reasonable interretation. But it leaves open the question of what gives Obama standing to interpret the faith to Muslims.

Oddly enough, quite a few Muslims who openly profess their faith seem to disagree, and cite Koranic injunctions on dealing with infidels, and Jews in particular. Those who reject Islam are not “innocent” in their view.
