What do u think of Bush saying this?

Question

"I don't know that atheist should be regarded as citizens, nor should they be regarded as patriotic. This is one nation under God."

I don't know when he said it. I read it in"The Atheist Bible: an illustrious collection of irreverent thoughts".

I for one am an Atheist and completely proud Of the United States in its accomplishments.

Its not an actual bible Tom T. Its just a collection of quotes from atheist. It makes more sense than the Christian bible with all its nonsense.

Answer 1

I don't think God ever had anything to do with this nation. In Daniel and Revelations, it calls this Anglo American nation a beast with 'horns of a lamb, and jagged teeth". Why would God support a nation, from which it's past present and future is based on war? Can you think of a time when Americans were not at war? And I believe that Jesus said to 'love thy enemy' not 'bomb thy enemy.'

Answer 2

Wait a minute! You say that you read this irreverent quote from President Bush in the Atheist bible and it, in itself is a collection of irreverent thoughts? What's the problem?

Answer 3

If that quote is accurate, and Bush did say it word for word, then I think he made a boo-boo.
I am a Christian, a former atheist.
I will stand side by side against anyone who denies the atheist the right to be an atheist because I think that is not what America is all about.

Answer 4

If the atheist bible said it, it must certainly be so. Even though Bush never said it. Incredible! You probably don't believe a word the real Bible says, yet you lap up the atheist garbage as though it was based upon absolute proof.

Answer 5

President Bush says lots of things with which I disagree. Firstly, he can say whatever he wants and so can you and I. As to my opinion of what he said, assuming he really said this exactly as quoted, I find it very unfair. There can be patriotism in one's heart regardless of one's religious belief.

But hey, I have to listen to repeated comments from Bush that gay marriage will destroy the sanctity of marriage. Being President does not mean you know or understand everything.

Answer 6

I did just read on robsherman.com/information that there are documents in the Bush library that in 1988 he did in fact say this. I would have to see them myself to believe it, but if he did, then he is a bigot and can not classify himself as patriotic in any sense of the word.

Answer 7

I am a christian and the definition of a US Citizen is anyone born in the US. Dont quote George as our leader. lol It just doesnt work out that way.

Answer 8

Who would Jesus bomb? Does anyone, discounting the mentally ill Right xtian, flying monkey Neo-conservatives, actually believe anything this fascist would-be dictator says, or support anything he's advocated for the past five years?

Unfortunately these wretches still constitute around 25% - 35% of 'Mercans who vote with the 'Haves and Have Mores' (Bush's base), and against their own self-interests.

May all of them have their homes forclosed, and may they all lose their jobs to the Chinese, and drown in a sea of debt slavery - for they 'richly' deserve to lose everything...

Answer 9

The angels of Heaven will rejoice when the Bush dictatorship is gone. Evil men like this must be voted out of office. In a democratic society, this is how they are removed. Please. During the next presidential election, remember to vote. And bring decency and order back to our society.

Answer 10

I don't believe George W. said that. Anyway, why would I believe what The "Atheist Bible " says??? And why do atheists have a bible anyway, I thought they weren't religious?

Answer 11

I am christian and some of the most honest, ethical people i know are atheist. You have to keep in mind this statement comes from a christian who happens to be a numbskull.
