Is Bush expanding the Iraq war because he is hoping for the Christian apocalypse where the faithful will be swept up to heaven?. Does he believe he is the 2nd coming of Christ?

Bush isn't religious. He uses his Christian banter to gain support from the people for his abominable actions.

Your ignorant
No rapture
Gospel According to Saint Matthew
Chapter 6
33 Seek ye therefore first the kingdom of God, and his justice, and all these things shall be added unto you.
34 Be not therefore solicitous for tomorrow; for the morrow will be solicitous for itself. Sufficient for the day is the evil thereof.
The origins of the doctrine of the rapture are hotly debated. The Orthodox, mainline Protestant, and Roman Catholic churches (which represent the majority of Christians worldwide) have no tradition of such a teaching and reject the doctrine, in part because they cannot find any reference to it among any of the early Church fathers and in part because they do not interpret the scriptures the way that Rapture-believers do.

I doubt that Bush is motivated by religion. I think he simply panders to the Christian voters.
I'd say that Bush is not a religious psycho, just a regular psycho.

More than likely he does but his ACTIONS in the middle east i feel have little to do with relgion.
I belive he is trying to please the american people I think Bush has done what he can to a point but i think he needs to stop worrying about pleasing people cause odviously many people dont like him and take some action to end the terrosim in Iraq. Just pull a hiroshema on them that would take care of the problem.
Probaly gonna get soem flack on that one but oh well everyone is entitled to their opinion!

You have confused the words Apocalypse and Armageddon, and he does not indicate believing he is divine. He simply wears the anti-intellectual sentiment of many theists as a guide for life.

Bush is a running back for the New Orleans Saints. He had a great run today, but the Bears were too much for them.

It's an interesting theory, but it's probably false. Dubya doesn't have the final say in wartime. Most of it is Congress.

No he'snot smart enough to believe he's the second coming of Christ. He's just a plain psycho.

He talks religion because it's politically expedient. He does not care a rip for the Christian faith. He'd call himself a Satanist if he thought it would gain him more political support.
