what about "those shall not kill"
2006-09-17 16:56:50 · update #1
Everybody knows he is a hypocrite. "Weapons of mass destruction", please. He knew they didn't exist before he sent the troops in. His biggest job was to come up with a lie that would excuse himself from world-wide criticism.
"Thou shalt not kill" never applies to these people. They can be responsible for mass murders and yet they will act as pious as possible. Just because he might not be responsible for as many murders as Saddam Hussein or Hitler is no excuse. So much for his so-called faith in God.

More BS!!!!! Lies, half truths, and innuendos!!! You ask if Bush can be considered a Christian IF---------------. Anyone can be CONSIDERED a Christian, period. To actually BE a Christian, one has to actually BELIEVE in Jesus Christ.So yes, Bush can be CONSIDERED a Christian regardless of the other stipulations in your question. IS BUSH A CHRISTIAN? (more to the point) Yes, he definitely is as he has publicly asserted that he is. Can Bush be considered a Christian IF HE DOESN'T RESPECT ANY OF THE 10 COMMANDMENTS? If those innuendos were true Bush could still be CONSIDERED A CHRISTIAN and Bush COULD ACTUALLY BE A CHRISTIAN UNDER THOSE LIES.Bush still believes in Jesus Christ regardless of whether he respects the 10 commandments or not. Now, taking it one step from there---ANY OF THE 10 COMMANDMENTS. That is just a plain out and out half truth or maybe even a lie. You have no way of knowing that Bush does not respect ANY OF THE 10 COMMANDMENTS but you put the word IF in front of all that so now your question is legitimate even though it is full of lies and half truths and innuendos.Loaded question and false. The choir that you are preaching to will all say that GW is a hypocrite and a bad Christian when they answer this question because they will answer it by what they surmise it to ask, NOT WHAT IT ACTUALLY ASKS. Typical libertard propaganda.

The definition of a Christian is someone who says he is one.
Of course not everybody would agree. The Pope claims a monopoly; so do the evangelicals -- of which George W. Bush claims to be a member.
But can a Scientologist be deemed a Christian? A Unitarian-Universalist? A member of the church of the late Kirby James Hensley, the Universal Life Church where you could believe anything or nothing? The Church of the late Rev. David Berg who assimilated sex to prayer and considered (seemingly) defloration to acceptance of Jesus ("always in attendance at orgasm")?
Only the US Military would lump Anabaptists, Seventh Day Adventists and Nazarenes with the above.
And as for the Ten Commandments: even Jimmy Carter, quintessential evangelical (some said) admitted to lust. Jimmy Swaggart didn't admit to it until after getting caught. The Bakkers I think got caught violating more than one Commandment. Enough said.

There exist good Christians and bad Christians, but all Christians fail to be good all of the time. But why bring Bush into this question? Are you implying that Bush does not respect any of the 10 Commandments? Is that a fair allegation?

Anyone can claim Christianity-
A true Christian is a born again believer who follows the teaching and preaching of Jesus Christ.
Book of James 1:8 1:8 A double minded man is unstable in all his ways.
It tells us that a double minded person is not to be trusted.
The Greek word translated "double-minded" in James 1:8, dipsuchos, in its literal sense means "double-souled," like having two independent wills. The words "with no doubting" in verse 6 are translated from the Greek words meedén diakrinómenos, which describes one divided in mind, who wavers between two opinions.
We cannot serve both God and man!

Do you believe that President Bush has no respect toward the Ten Commandments? If so, what do you base that belief upon?
Be careful that you don't fall victim to all the sordid distortions spread about him--soley because you may disagree on the Iraqian war.

Umm are you god?
No i seriously doubt you are cause god would have spelled
Christian correctly.........
Of course Bush is can be considered a Christian! Every last living breathing person on earth breaks the ten Commandments... Although we were created in god's image we are imperfect and we break the laws that god has established for us. In god's eyes you are no better than him, and he is certanily no less of a christian than pope Benedict
Of course Bush can be considered a Christian

Why not, how many Christians do you know that actually live by all 10 commandments? SOME break them then pray for forgiveness.
