.and that is because he is a man of character and knows who HIS "Commander
in Chief" is. Just because a man says he is getting his direction from God doesn't mean he actually is. Maybe he is just playing to a theme. In fact the constant reminders we are being given that Bush is such a 'good' Christian make me distrust him even more because it looks to me as if he is misusing his faith. I feel in this case its being touted more as a political point than a religious conviction. I believe in God, I consider myself a Christian. I don't hide it but nor do I announce it at every opportunity simply to reap benefits from it. I don't think a person's faith should be used for the wrong purposes. I think a Christian should get on with the business of living a Christian life instead of saying they are a Christian to get ahead in life. Debra |
