I may not be a Christian, but I have a lot of respect for those that live as "Christians" are meant to live and practise what they preach.. way too few of them in my opinion, and that includes the priesthood.
To clarify:
Someone that kills or starts wars because "God" told them to is a nutter.
Someone that kills his own people just to remain in power is evil in my opinion, however as the human species is violent in its very nature, he may not be technically away with the fairies.
To round up 1000's of one religion because he thinks one of them cursed an Aunt makes him, again in my opinion, a fruitcake.
It's like, I dont know.. say killing hundreds of thousands because one of 'em may have tried to kill "Daddy".
I recommend you take
umbrage, if anything, but, hey.
I don't recall Bush going into Afghanistan
or Iraq because God told him to, neither do I recall any confessions (or
proof) of vengeful motivation on behalf of his father.
You'd also be hard-put to lay all those casualties at his doorstep (there
were opposing - and even
less scrupulous players on the field, if you recall).
All-in-all, I think your obsession with Dubya is sort of, well...
outmoded.
At least, that's what I hear whenever I mention Mr. Bill.
Anyhoo, look on the bright side - you won't have American influence to complain about much longer, eh?
We're gonna be a third-world wreck in no time.
