3. Things like "Love your neighbor" are only sayings......
That's how you bring them to you, not by KILLING their families!!!

the Faux Xians do not believe in the teachings of Christ,,,, only the birth & death of him matter.

4. Bush is a slow reader...
... so he's still working on the Old Testament where Yahweh is very busy on the subject of smiting....

5. If Bush is a Christian, I'm a Scientologist
Bush knows that if he spouts that bullshit, the dumb fundies will suck it up like spaghetti. He could rape a goat on national TV and as long as he screamed, "THANK YA, JESUS!!" at orgasm, Ma and Pa Bornagain will thank the Lord that we have such a great Christian man in the White House.

It sickens me.

6. THEY CANNOT, MOPAUL ...
and that is why going to church is a passé thing with me these days.

i prefer to nourish my relationship with God in the confines of my own home these days doing things like reading the bible and praying away from the cacophonous voices of hypocrisy.

7. what evidence do you see of jesus's teachings in shrub's skull?
he's learned how to proclaim christianity.
he's learned how to exploit faith.
he's learned how to dupe some christians by appealing to their understanding of jesus's teachings.

but i see no evidence that shrub himself knows or understands or practices anything like what jesus himself urged.

14. ah, well, that's a bit easier:
i think by far most of the christians who support shrub take at face value his claim, and the spin of others, that shrub is a good christian.

i think further that they look to the president as a moral leader, and aren't overly concerned with policy. they want the president to be an upright role model for their children, to tell their kids to stay away from drugs, to not have sex outside of wedlock, and to lead a good, healthy, proper life.

if clinton advanced the exact same agenda as shrub, they wouldn't support it because they didn't see him as a moral person.

8. Bush-supporting Christians are a different breed.
One way to distinguish them from "real" Christians is that they are obsessed with the Ten Commandments (i.e. Old Testament wrath-of-God stuff) but never mention posting the Sermon On the Mount (Christ's actual words) anywhere. Even a quick reading of the latter passage in the Bible reveals the yawning gap between Jesus's words and right-wing political policies. Like, you know, "blessed are the poor" - I guess that's why we are cutting their programs.
