The Rev. Franklin Graham on Friday said that President Barack Obama was "born a Muslim" because the religion's "seed" is passed from the father.
Graham made the remark during an interview with CNN's John King set to air Friday night after being asked about a new Pew poll showing that 31 percent of Republicans believe the president -- a Christian -- is Muslim.
Asked by King if he, too, has doubts about the president's faith, Graham said that Obama's "problem is he was born a Muslim."
"The seed is passed through the father," Graham said. "He was born a Muslim. His father was a Muslim; the seed of Muslim is passed through the father like the seed of Judaism is passed through the mother. He was born a Muslim; his father gave him an Islamic name."
Graham, the son of evangelist Billy Graham, acknowledged that Obama has said he is a Christian.
