Tough titty.
"No King but Jesus!"
The problem is while Jesus Christ is in the hearts of many who fight this war some of the people and these countrys choose to have their god in a book or a religion instead of truly allowing Christ into their lives they call on him when it fits the situtation and when they know Christ wouldnt approve they simply leave him behind
News flash
Christ dont work that way your either for him or against him
Rev 3:16 So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth.
So is bush pushing an agenda for Christianizing the world or is he simply beleiving in god the way god wishes him too
I dont hear him shoving religion down the throats of beleivers of other faiths or forcing out religions that dont fit a certain criteria there are still many religions in the states and around the world who dont beleive Christ is the one true God .
What i do hear him doing is Beleiving in Christ and asking for prayers for our country and troops and he should be free to do both as he chooses president or not he is a christian and our freedom to beleive in christ does not stop with the mantle of President .
Clinton invoked God plenty of times to suit himself, like when he claimed that him getting serviced by Monica was a matter between him and God, and when he went to church every Sunday toting that huge Bible, and when he had his "spiritual advisors" after the Lewinsky scandal. But the difference between Clinton and Bush is that Bush actually believes in God, while Clinton believed in putting on a show of acting religious in order to fool people.
Ahh...and old Europe sees the difference between authentic faith & sham Christianity. They prefer the sham.
There's always tension between socialists, who want folk to believe that rights are granted by the state, and religion where rights are unalienable and granted by the "creator". Nothing new there.
What is more of note is the "religious leaders" who are uncomfortable with secular leaders who are men of faith. The only holy war I've seen or heard about is the war on the unborn that marches on unfettered in Europe while the "religious leaders" yap on about the death of tyrants and murderers.
Exactly!
From what I understand, most of the churches in Europe are more tourist attractions than places of worship. It's no wonder that is, with leaders like the ones quoted in this article!
Southeast France has a local tourist attraction that bus loads of Frenchmen visit on vacation. The online websites aren't always in English.
If Saunière was a Cathar then the devil supporting the catholic baptismal font makes sense. We must remember that Cathars regarded churches as worshipping places for Satan and the Catholic Church as the work of the Devil. They also regarded the material creation as Evil. For them an infant was a soul trapped in an Evil body.
The Cathar heresy was supposedly rooted out but to this day the biggest heretics in the history of Christianity AND western civilization are the French. The French have no problem equivocating good with evil and perverting everything good.
The Cathar heresy lasted several hundred years and took strong root in southern France due to the total corruption of the Catholic organization. It's modern day counterpart is seen in "The brotherhood of the Wolf" a recent movie.
Secret societies rule the European Continent and have degenerated European civilzation back to a medieval sans Christian mindset.
Christian Jihad is all that can help recover Europe. no mindful christian crusade can meet the purpose of saving Christianity on the continent from self-serving heretics, atheists and Ilamics.
Believe the islamics - there is no need to "assume they don't know what they are saying": Allah had no son, Jesus is not the son of Allah so there fore Allah is not the God of the jews. Case Closed.
ah, like the Germans or the French use faith appropriately by taxing it and creating government blessed religions.
What a load of crap.
And also the Euros have no understanding of the superstitious nature of their lives based in ideologies serving certain people and gods of their own making. Their so called "realism" or secularism is highly misplaced when it does not expect victory but mediocre results only to self congratulate themselves on achieving their mediocre expectations. There is no moral clarity when one does not expect victory and one forgets that access to the benefits of science must come through people that can only be trusted if they believe in God and not themselves or other gods, ideologies and people. There are inalienable truths and goods in this gray world that self impose themselves. Whatever grates at Euro ears right now is what is going to make the Iraqis sleep better in the future hopefuly. Too bad the Euros cannot sleep well because the Iraqis can now.
WHy can't the President be free to speak? That the US President shows his faith makes not America a theocracy. But that these maniacal idiots confining the world according to their pretexting antiAmerican hate "precepts" impose on the US their forms of unrepresented government is patent imposition of an institutionalized mode of thinking of their own that is not representing the people. And why do they worry about Bush's faith but not Jiang's, Stalin's, Hitler's or their own?
2.Remember, socialism has replaced Christianity as the main religion in Europe. That is NOT an exaggeration; They'll even admit it to your face.
Exactly. While the socialists call for the usage of children and women to wage their wars and movements (it's for the children), mixing sanctuaries and arenas like no other fascistoid, paranoiac, murderous, fanatical religion ever, they claim Bush mixes religion and war, which he never did.
I have personaly a big problem when Euro socialist agenda indoctrinates and recruits in their sanctuarless government schools for their own personal political Jihad in this world.
