"The Bible is not my book nor Christianity my profession."
-- Abraham Lincoln

Then again, he also said:

"I believe the Bible is the best gift God has ever given to man."

Don't we have a non christian president now?

No, he's a Christian.

Like I said, Lincoln and Jefferson might not have been Christians.

Obama is of partial Muslim descent, but he is a Christian in terms of his actual religion. The question can be reworded to "When will we have our next non-Christian President?"

So is Obama half-christian?  The Christian PACs are too strong to prevent losing power and influence.  Reformed Christianity is something that is uniquely American and differs us from the other countries.  I think it would be interesting to have a Unitarian politician. 
There were a few Unitarian Presidents.

Unitarians are Christians.
No they are not. The Unitarians themselves say so.

Taft was also a Unitarian, though I consider that to be a Protestant demonimation.

Taft said, and I quote: "I do not believe in the divinity of Jesus Christ."

So he can't really be called a Christian.

So not believing in Jesus's Divinity makes someone non-Christian? I think not. I think Taft would be nominally Christian. I'm Jewish, but I am skeptical that everything that the Old Testament says is accurate.
Well, what do you concider a Christian to be?

Muslims aren't a race like Jews are.

We have a non christian president right now. Americans do not know Barack Obama's heartbeat.

Americans didn't know ANY president's heartbeat. For all we know they could all have worshiped anything or nothing. If ANY president was an atheist, it was Thomas Jefferson. Obama is more Christian than Jefferson.
