Just been on a bible newsgroup...oh boy

Went through some of the posts on soc.religion.christian.bible-study to see what they were saying about **. This thread nearly made me fall on the floor. The key comment is>>>

"If our national leaders make bad decisions, whose fault is
that? It's our fault, for not praying for them."

Ahhhh....so we need to pray more and Georgie boy will make better decisions. Problem solved - get praying everyone.

Complete thread to show the infallible logic>>>

> Does Iraq look like a success to anyone?

No. Neither does a new-born baby. Some babies make
it, some don't. But they don't look like much either way, at first.

Is right and wrong a matter of popular opinion? If
right attracts opposition, does that make it wrong?
Are our values to be held hostage to the opinions of
terrorists?

We need a better paradigm here. Try this one: If our
national leaders make bad decisions, whose fault is
that? It's our fault, for not praying for them.

Don't pray that they will come down on one side or the
other. Simply pray that God will give them wisdom.
God can do that for Bush just as well as He could do it
for someone else, be he imbecile or moron, or not.

that is the fault of 48% of the country.

They actually buy into Bush's religious tripe. I am a Christian... and I see his past is WAY too dirty for him to be acting like a golden boy. :eyes:

I'm a Pagan, and I am a bit abashed to say that I am glad he isn't.

they are blaming themselves for Bush? Well, okay, maybe you can make a case for that

They better start praying like f*cking dervishes

This is the first prayer I say in the morning and the last prayer I say every night. god, pleas bring our troops home and get us out of Iraq and please either help GWB and his cronies see the light or get them the heck out of office! Not very profound but nevertheless. EVERY day now for nearly 2 years! I guess I'm being too specific. Maybe I should just start praying that God will REALLY talk to *!

No, it's my fault. I prayed an exactly opposite prayer to theirs. Except I prayed HARDER!! :crazy:

Peace not shrubs war.
