    Please explain how this post makes any sense? You are saying that George Bush is not a born again Christian and he is lying too us to further his political career.

    Crack head to born again Bible thumper. Sounds convincing to me.




    Do you think he was selling us a line?


    Bush considering his political future decides on campaign slogans:

    America, I won't sell you a line, but I might buy one.

    or

    I'm born again and I love God. Family values and all that.

    I think somebody may have advised him wisely.

    Damn man what's funny is I did shortly after that post.

    I was just on the computer without doing something else at the time (except trying to watch Bill Maher)...very unusual.

    Context is simple.


    You said that answering to a higher power prevents people from acting on their selfish desires.

    Bush sent troops to kill people despite being a Christian. This means he is killing people in spite of God's order not to. His belief in God stopped nothing.

    Jp then stated that this means that somehow I was blaming all Christians for Bushs' action.

    That conclusion is illogical. I mean there is absolutely nothing in my posts that would infer that, nothing.


    How can you agree with such an illogical statement?

    At the time, I felt it was giving the impression to others reading the thread that I was somehow smearing all Christians because of the actions of Bush.

    My point was that people seem to do what they want, despite mouthing a devotion to a God that strictly forbids killing.

    If you were simply interjecting a comment that Christians were getting shit because of the actions of Bush and that is what BM is agreeing with, I am fine with that.

    I simply wanted to make it clear that I was not casting such aspersions.

    The thread was running a bit hot at the time.

    Strictly speaking, the commandment is:

    Thou shalt not kill..

    Says bog all about getting someone else to do it for you...

    An It Harm None, Do What You Will
