Perhaps a better use of your time would be to ponder the fact that God IS going to hold you (and each of us) accountable for NOT praying for the leaders of the world.
Regarding heaven - it is a prepared place for a prepared people. To prepare one must repent of their sin nature and truly accept Jesus Christ as their LORD and Savior.
I caution you to be very careful in what you wish for because you just might get it. Then again you might end up with what happened to a woman I used to work with. She was a very bubbly fun person who said she wanted to go to hell when she died because "all the best people would be there." However that soon changed after her beloved / only son and his wife died in a boating accident.

I am sorry for you...and for the others who have posted thus far. It is sad that you are so hell bent (pardon the pun) on not believing in Jesus and His love for you. It is sad that you judge Him based on the actions of those of us who are still human and prone to make mistakes. It is sad that you would willingly choose to trespass in hell because you don't want to believe....and you choose to harden your hearts against him. My heart aches when I read posts like these and I don't even know where to begin to end that ache. But you know what...I don't want to stop the ache because it is compassion...and without it I would be so hardened I wouldn't care that you are choosing to go to hell....and you are doing it with a smile. Do you realize that if you go to hell you are tresspassing? Yeah, you are because hell was not created for us...it was created for Satan himself. You were not meant to go there in any form...and the only reason we will go to hell is if we choose to go....Jesus doesn't want you there...He wants you in heaven with Him. He wants you by His side for all eternity. Please stop being so flippant about something so completely serious. Please rethink your stance on "preferring hell". Please rethink your belief or lack thereof in a loving and compassionate God....because unless you do then you are in essence choosing to go to hell and that is the saddest thing of all.
As for you comments regarding President Bush....if you think you can do a better job...get out there and raise the money and run for President yourselves...and stop belly aching. President Bush has done the best he can with what he has to be the best leader he can be...he has sworn to protect this country which is more than Slick Willy ever thought of doing. At least President Bush is willing to stand up for his country even though so many of the people that he is protecting hate him for it. You don't support the commander in chief....you don't support the military who are laying their lives on the line so that you can get on here and put this garbage on here everyday. I saw a bumper sticker the other day that I really liked....and I'd love to find one to buy... it read
"If you don't back our military, feel free to stand in front of them."
That pretty much says it all doesn't it?

If Bush reconciles with God and God feels that he is truly sorry and is worth forgiveness then God can forgive him. And if God forgives his for all his other sins as well, then God can let him in Heaven. We will never know until judgement day.
My grandma use to say that we will be surprised to see who is in Heaven and we will be amazed to see who is in hell.

God has forgiven everyone through Christ's work on the cross. Anyone who repents and trusts in Jesus Christ for his salvation will go to heaven. Anyone who trusts in his own miserable works for his salvation will go to hell on the Last Day.

When did Bush, I think you are writing about the President Bush that is currently in office, kill thousands, I think you are writing about people.
Get your sentence structure correct as this question makes no sense.

Absolutely not. Read the attached for more information about the middle east and Bush, from a Baptist perspective.

"It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God"
Sloth, Pride and Greed are all deadly sins.
Do not misuse the name of God is one of the ten commandments - "God told me to invade Iraq", "God wanted me to be president".
As is do not lie (no need to cite example here - even if he didn't lie through his teeth to justify Iraq, he's a politician - you don't get into politics without telling a LOT of lies).
Do not kill is debatable, as he ordered the killing, didn't directly partake.
Either way... I'm confident he won't be meeting St. Peter at any pearly gates... Straight to hellfire...

Because a person can be forgiven, you would prefer Hell?

No matter who it is, if they ask forgiveness, and truly mean it..turn from there sinful way.
But where do you get that he has killed..it is a war...and it seems to me that so many have forgotten 9-11..what happened..but I guess we are suppose to just lay down and take it right?..without doing nothing..right?! I don't think so.
