Usually when someone casts doubts on Obama’s professed Christianity, it’s accompanied by a claim that the President is actually a secret Muslim. Yet Bill Maher thinks Obama is faking his religion to hide a different secret: his agnosticism.

Maher argued that Obama only pretends to be a Christian because it would be political suicide to say otherwise. Similarly, he said that Obama also feigns his opinions about other contentious issues like gay marriage to appear more centrist and thus boost his popularity.

“I think he’s a centrist the way he’s a Christian,” Maher said on his program, Real Time. “He’s pretending to be a centrist.”

“His mother was a secular humanist and I think he is too,” he added.
