Default Bush and his religion?

...
This is intellectually illiterate.


But true!


Half true at best. The stories are similar on a few points,
coincidentally the only ones you'd choose to broadcast. I won't ask you
if you know the points where the divergences are huge, of course you
won't know them. Even on points of similarity, the Hebraic revelations
of creation are the only ones with which with the findings of modern
science consistently comport (www.reasons.org). As to "messianic"
stories, indeed knowledge was in the world of the coming of a savior
long before he came. The Bible is clear on this.


The Bible is clear on nothing, that is why there are over 33,000 Protestant
Cults all claiming to be the only true church.

Casper the Friendly Ghost is clear on his good doings.

Both works of fiction but both just as valid, Hoy Ghost, Friendly Ghost, get
it? VBG

I've heard the call. I believe God wants me to run for president.
-- George W. Bush, quoted in George Magazine, September, 2000

Nothing [Bush] does can be challenged on moral grounds, however unethical or
evil it might appear,
because all of his actions are directed by God. He can twist the truth,
oppress the poor, exalt the rich,
despoil the earth, ignore the law--and murder children--without the
slightest compunction, the briefest
moment of doubt or self-reflection, because he believes, he truly believes,
that God squats in his brainpan and tells him what to do.
-- Chris Floyd, CounterPunch, 7/30/03

George Bush was not elected by a majority of the voters in the United
States. He was appointed by God.
-- Lt. Gen. William Boykin, the defense undersecretary in charge of
hunting down top terrorists in Iraq and Afghanistan

No, I don't know that atheists should be considered as citizens, nor should
they
be considered as patriots. This is one nation under God.
-- George Bush Sr., to a reporter in 1988

We Americans have no commission from God to police the world.
--Benjamin Harrison

The government of the United States is not, in any sense, founded on the
Christian religion.
--George Washington, Treaty of Tripoli, 1796

Christianity neither is, nor ever was a part of the common law.
--Thomas Jefferson, February 10, 1814
