Obama shares beliefs about Islam and evolution

GRANTHAM, Pennsylvania - Barack Obama has described himself as a devout Christian but believes Islam can be compatible with the modern world.




Obama's comments came last night at a event sponsored by Messiah College in Pennsylvania called the " Compassion Forum."



Obama also declared that he believes in evolution, but also believes that God created the universe.



The Illinois senator has drawn attention to his theological beliefs a number of times during the last few weeks. As an example, contrary to what the Bible teaches about Jesus being the only way of salvation, Obama has stated that people of other religions who do good works are also children of God.
