Did God trick * into invading Iraq?
Apparently Bush says in an upcoming BBC documentary that God told him, among other things, to invade Iraq. This is puzzling to me. Why would God do this? Did God somehow not know that there were no WMD in Iraq, no connection to 9/11, and so on? I mean, the guy is supposed to be omniscient, right? Why on earth would he tell Bush to commit the biggest strategic blunder in American history?

With advisers like Tubby McTreason and a trickster God, no wonder Bush is going down! Sheesh.

1. It's people like Bush that are killing off Christianity
Everyone using it to promote their Fascist ideas and so many true Christians buy it hook, line, and sinker because he uses the name of God. I hope him and all of his cohorts get what's coming to them.

2. There is no higher delusion
than someone who believes he's being directed by god. The apex of arrogance and insanity.

6. interesting, lets talk Schizophrenia and Abraham, god telling him to kill
his children on an Altar... under not other circumstance have i ever heard of someone hearing voices to kill their children than schitzophrenia...

so then Mohamed who is genetically related to Abraham.. hears voices from god and is called a prophet.. today he would just be a bum on the street talking to himself..

3. I know people who have done things because "God told
them to". They now reside in mental institutions.

11. SInce Bush follows the god of Abraham
Yes, his god did trick us into all sorts of destructive acts.

Has a gnostic, I do not follow the god of Abraham. He's definitely one of the bad guys.

15. No. God Said He Never Told Him Any Such Thing
I checked. God said, "Nope. Li'l Georgie (God calls him Li'l Georgie because God pities him), lied about that."
