"For the wrath of man worketh not the righteousness of God. " James 1:20
Edited on Tue Jul-11-06 10:28 AM by Democrats_win
This Bible verse demonstrates that Bush's wars are not in any way approved by God.

2. Sometimes the Fundies are worse
Than the Neocons, they cherry pick what intelligence that want
to use, and leave the real stuff out.
off subject, we sure do need some rain, it is getting way to
dry.

7. Honestly it's not just fundies
Neocons are behind bush, always screaming that he is a decent man. Slap some bible verses on them and address the issue of bush believing God talks to him and they always slink away. Their Achilles heal is wrapped in religion. I believe it's the way to defeat them.

3. James is One of My Favorite Books
and unlike most Biblical scholars, I think it's unquestionably genuine. It also has the following passage to strike fear into the Bushes and Bennetts of the world:
Come now, you rich, weep and howl for the miseries that are coming upon you. Your riches have rotted and your garments are moth-eaten. Your gold and silver have corroded, and their corrosion will be evidence against you and will eat your flesh like fire. You have laid up treasure in the last days. Behold, the wages of the laborers who mowed your fields, which you kept back by fraud, are crying out against you, and the cries of the harvesters have reached the ears of the Lord of hosts. You have lived on the earth in luxury and in self-indulgence. You have fattened your hearts in a day of slaughter. 6You have condemned; you have murdered the righteous person. He does not resist you

6. Of course they aren't
Nor are any of the things the Fundies do to their fellow human beings. The fundies keep talking about "God's Wrath" and what God is going to do to sinful Americans and the sinful world. I wish they'd just leave it to their God to do it rather than inflicting their own wrath on everybody. It's not their place to do so.
