you should read a history book on Christians,or even the bible
I think you will find many Christian wars and killing in the name of god
and as for abortions( and gays) ,well they also go with the flow and change their views to go with the majority

I'm not American, so i can't answer this from a legal point of view, but i can help the Christianity side.
Just because some one goes to church, or says they're a Christain no more makes them a Christian than sitting in the garage and making "brrrm brrrm" noises makes them a Mercedes.
Yes, a lot of people have claimed to be Christians, and to be doing Gods will. Its happened all through history - just look at the Crusades. Many people say that Christians, and therefore Christianity is bad or wrong because of all the people massacred in the Crusades by 'Christians'. But people mess up, or people use religion as an excuse, or a means of getting what they want.
Use your discernment to see if someone really is a Christians. Look to what they do, not what they say.
DO you really think, then, George Bush is doing God's will?

Unfortunately, he is under a lot of political pressure and his wanting to remain President probably takes precedence over his Christian beliefs. His father was also pro life and had problems because of it. It was after he ended his presidency that Barbara Bush came out and admitted to being pro choice.
As for the war thing, innocent people die in all wars. That isn't necessarily a Bush ism.

Stopping Abortion is a difficult proposal for a President of the US. The president may have his personal religious feelings of Abortion but to say 'Stop Abortions' in a Democratic state would be medeling with the human rights of citizens.
The war thing is another story; ask it again later.

The President doesn't get to make laws. Making abortion illegal would require amending the US Constitution or an act of the Supreme Court. Even then, that wouldn't stop abortion -- it would just drive it underground. Have the laws against marijuana made marijuana use decrease AT ALL since they were passed in the last 1930s? Laws don't work.
As far as the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, I think you have a very good point.

Bush is not a Christian and he just intersted earning money. He not interested in stoping abortion. when so many people could have babies if we would allow less abortion and more people would have a child. As far as him killing thousand of people the reason is money and from what I know the reason we went to war is cause of the the price of the oil. somehow makeing it cheaper.

1. He didn't stop abortion because a president is not all powerful and he doesn't have the ability to stop it. He can preach against it, but the US runs on something called 'freedom'. If the people want it, the people will get it.
2. Because he's a psychopath who wants to go down in history as a great President. Thing is, pretty much everyone hates his guts, and his popularity scores are the lowest ever seen for a Presidency. HE think that history will remember him as a great man, but no, he's going to remember as worse than Nixon.

A bit more research on your part would serve you well. The President doesn't have the single authority to "stop abortion". The act of abortion is protected under the Supreme Court's ruling in Roe vs. Wade. Overturning that ruling, and the laws that enforce it, isn't within his powers as Commander in Chief.

i do no longer think of so. the U. S. suitable court docket has ruled that abortion is roofed as a privateness precise interior of physician affected person privilege. it would take a Constitutional modification to alter this. which potential the states might all could vote of their respective congresses and bypass it via 2-thirds majority. it relatively is been stated that if many suitable court docket justices have been replaced, the abortion ruling may be overturned. that's extremely, very no longer likely. Even judges who could have faith abortion could be a criminal offense does no longer opt to undermine a prior court docket. That has befell in simple terms a handful of cases.

Well, I can't answer on the wars, But for the abortion issue you seen to think that a president has unlimited power, He doesn't. There are people involved with that issue that keep it legal, Despite what you may believe.
