THE WORD OF GOD.

President George Bush tells us that he invaded Iraq because God told him too.

Therefore, I presume all Christians, obeying the Lord's word, are in favour of the Iraqi war, right?

Only doubting Thomas's could think otherwise, suggesting that Bush was either telling little white lies, or is deluded.

If you think he is not telling the truth, you must believe him unfit for office. If you think he is deluded, surely this makes him unfit for office also.

But when anybody, Bush or otherwise, hears voices in their head, is that the word of God, or a sign of madness, and how can we tell the difference?

God has never spoken to me directly, and frankly, I do not believe he, or she, speaks to anyone directly. If used (or misused) by politicians, religion is a most powerful tool.

    Deluted or telling us lies - I beleve Bush is \"Full of it\" and most definetely unfit for office. But at this time in his term - what else can we do? It would take an out and out criminal act to get him removed from office. Then we would have an incompitent Vice President take over. From the frying pan into the fire.
