haven't you ever read the bible?

God only "tells" Bush things because he (Bush) knows that hearing that floats the boat of most voters. Face it, most Americans will respect anything that sounds religious without analyzing the source.
Bush is nothing but an opportunist who will say anything to feather his own greedy nest. He's a master of propaganda who could convince the public there's green cheese on the moon.

This is perversion of the highest order. Bush is using fear and the cynical, sinister hijacking of the Evangelical belief system to further the agenda of the dark side. This has nothing to do with God, and everything to do with the lowest common denominator of man, which the Bush family and their House has used for profit at the expense people all over the world.

The Abrahamic god, Yahweh, is indeed a war god. Tribal gods are always war gods.
I doubt if Bush understands Hebrew, though.

The god in the Old Testament is. The OT god is not based on the divine though but some people in that area mining gold long ago.
The divine creator is NOT pro war.

Don't be such a stupid ***. God didn't go to George Bush and tell him to go fight the terrorist. What the hell is wrong with people like you. People make their own decisions.

I don't believe God is concerned about what happens here on the physical plane. We chose to come here, and He's set up a means by which we can return to our home when we are ready. Until then, He lets us toil away, totally unconcerned.

God sent a many Great men to war. Read the old testament and see for yourself.

God did not tell him that, i think God understands that we are protecting ourselves, but we should not go out just for the enjoyment of killing people.

Jesus desires care for all mankind-9/11 proved some of mankind are against care and peace-and had we not stepped in the war would still be on in America instead of in Iraq-and today we can preach the gospel in Iraq when once you would have been hurt or killed for doing it-even as they have said they will kill all believers in Jesus-and the Sunni's kill the Shiite Moslems blowing up each others mosques since Feb 11 2006 when they first destroyed the 'Golden Mosque in Samarra Iraq - and killing each others Imans
it is time for Jesus and the new birth as he asks knocking on our heart door to come in deliver from sins and be our friend Revelation 3:19&20 and John chapter 3=worked for me!

War is the process of deciding who or 'what thought' is fittest
for survival. Atheist would not accept this Question at all.Religious persons would say God is the warhead and provider of Victory for them. We know what war is? Inside or Outside. But do we know who or what God is ?
