BushRevealed.com contends president is compromising faith, promoting evil

ELECTION 2004 New Christian site: Don't vote for 'W' BushRevealed.com contends president is compromising faith, promoting evil

President Bush may not be able to count on solid voter support from conservative Christians in the upcoming election if a new website run by Christians has any impact.

BushRevealed.com made its debut on the Internet this week, calling on Christians across the nation to rethink voting for the president.

President Bush

The site, jointly operated by Philadelphia-based Repent America and Columbia Christians for Life in South Carolina, is designed to provide Christians with articles, information and commentaries on Bush's alleged pattern of what it calls anti-Christian behavior and challenges them not to "remain in bondage" to the two-party political system.

"President Bush has repeatedly, and continues, to justify the wicked; from advancing the homosexual agenda, to funding abortionists, to praising Islam, to signing unconstitutional bills into law that further socialism and shred our Bill of Rights," said Steve Lefemine, director of Columbia Christians for Life.

BushRevealed.com claims the president has compromised his Christian faith by "promoting evil and openly supporting wickedness," and warns believers to reject the notion they have no other choice but to vote for the lesser of two evils.

"So many well-meaning Christians continue to reject the truth about President Bush for the sake of conservatism," said Michael Marcavage, a preacher with Repent America. "As Christians, we are not conservatives, but disciples of Jesus Christ who recognize and proclaim where right and wrong come from. Therefore, we must vote righteously. ...

"We are not talking about an error or two that Bush has made in his time as president, rather a pattern of ungodly decisions to embrace and promote evil. ... Bush claims to be a Christian, but his works do not attest to this."

The new website contains a host of links to news articles documenting alleged evidence of Bush's departure from Christian values.

Among them is a WorldNetDaily report titled "Bush cheers 'gay' church after 'Marriage Week.'"

"Not long after he endorsed 'Marriage Protection Week,'" the article states, "President Bush sent a letter of congratulations to a denomination founded by homosexual activists that performs more than 6,000 same-sex 'weddings' each year."

Other headlines include:

Bush: Christians, Muslims worship same God;

Bush invites Muslims to pray in the White House;

Bush backs removal of Ten Commandment monument; and

Bush praises Ozzy Osbourne at White House dinner. "If Christians will repent of the unbiblical practice of voting for evil, even the lesser of evils, and vote for righteousness, inspecting, say, the Constitution Party candidate and others to discern whether they have biblically based, constitutionalist positions, then we will most wisely position ourselves to receive God's blessing, power, anointing and deliverance for the healing of our sin-sick land," Lefemine said.

It's Christians like these that give Christianity a bad name! For everyone they bring into the flock, they turn a thousand more people away from Christianity.

Never underestimate the power of human stupidity!

OK, let me dig out my Nomex undies...

"Bush: Christians, Muslims worship same God.."

News Flash - He's right, in fact its accepted fact/dogma by scholars from Christianity, Judaism and Islam that we worship the same God, the God of Abraham, and we are all sons of Abraham.

Yes, it's this kind of thing I think of when liberals talk about the so called "religious right."

Unfortunately, they are thinking about all of us.

This would indicate that these folks have a credibility gap, in my book.

I think the interlopers are those who try to legitimize fringe groups on FreeRepublic.

Bush praises Ozzy Osbourne at White House dinner.


It's statements like that which brings into question any legitimacy this group has..... Ozzy has never attended a White House Dinner...... but they will spew the falsehood and claim Christanity...

Bush cheers 'gay' church after 'Marriage Week.'

It was a standard form letter, not anything special. The same thing probably went out to a lot of churches that had sent the White House something around the same time.

Christians like this are one reason I find it hard to want to be a member of organized religion. Too much fighting in the church amongst. each other.

Yes. I have repeatedly had to explain that this never happened right here on Free Republic. It is obvious that a large number of people are not capable of reading simple facts, yet they get on this forum and spout their opinions and castigate the President.

In my opinion this site discussed is a Rat project to draw naive people into supporting someone other than Bush.

From the above noted website:

"If Christians vote for Republicans or Democrats, they are wasting their votes." "Lefemine does not buy the old line about voting for what some call "the lesser of two evils,"

Because Lefemine has a website, he demonstrates that he is busy engaging the world. Yet he calls on the rest of us to shun our calling to confront evil in the world. He is misguided if he thinks Christians don't belong in the two party tradition.

They are interlopers, plain and simple. While they may be the fire and brimstone clan, I think were going to see people claiming to be Christians who are nothing of the sort. With recent polls indicating the Democrats have a secular streak, they need to attack Bush's Faith to somehow improve theirs.

Bush "praised", if you want to call it that, Ozzy Osbourne at the White House Correspondents' Dinner a couple of years ago. Remember, when Ozzy stood up in his chair and waved around and Bush said his mom was a fan? He was a guest of Greta Van Susteren, if I'm not mistaken. So, no, Ozzy hasn't (as far as I know) attended dinner at the White House, he was at a White House Correspondents' Dinner.

Nevertheless, if praising Ozzy Osbourne is one of the "sins" of President Bush, well then...I agree with your sentiment on the subject.

Correct..... but not at a White House dinner as the authors of this article/web site make the accusation. And here's his quoted words..... Now is this UnChristian? It more calls into the agenda of someone hiding behind the Christian label to spread misinformation, imo

snip
"The thing about Ozzy," quipped the chief executive during his speech, "is he's had a lot of big recordings - Party With the Animals, Sabbath, Bloody Sabbath, Face in Hell, Black Skies and Blood in Paradise.

"Ozzy, Mom loves your stuff."
end snip

Could they actually be a democrat front group. Religious nuts like them are nutty enough to be democrats.

"If Christians will repent of the unbiblical practice of voting for evil, even the lesser of evils, and vote for righteousness...

...then they will never vote for any person, of any party, ever again. However, they're taking the Pharisaic approach to "righteousness", so they'd vote for any Whited Sepulchre as long as he told them what they wanted to hear.

"As it is written, there is no one righteous; not even one..."
