Our kids are getting slaughtered in Iraq and Church Goers don't care

- "Americans who attend church services regularly tend to support president bush's foreign policy."
- "People who regularly attend religious services are confident about the success of U. S. Policies in Iraq AND EXPRESS LOW LEVELS OF WORRY ABOUT CASUALTIES OR COST."
- Low levels of worry? They will sacrifice against evil? bush has "moral clarity?" And they wonder we call them insane.

This is bush's base at work enabling him to ruin our military and they are doing so in a tax exempt status.

1. Yikes. Yee-frikkin-ikes.

:scared:

This is the same group of people who view GLBT rights -- y'know, that whole Liberty and Justice For All thing -- as evil and wrong.

Yet they get all gooey and gushy about the "moral" way in which Bush conducts foreign policy. Yep... lies, slick talk and slaughter. They love it.

Sick, sick horrible people. They are the enemy within, they really are. :puke:

2. Yeah, justice for all except

people we hate. Its amazing the amount of negativity that comes from people who go to church and the rather ho-hum attitude about the death of our Soldiers. I would like them to have to work at a body recovery site in Iraq for a month or two to see if they might change their "religion."

3. this sounds crazy even to me but, i

was thinking about this the other day. And about the OT verses that show how furious that God was at parents who offered up their children to the god of Molech et al.
And i did a search, and came up with something that connected molech to 'war'- wish i'd been more attuned- but, there is something there. I'll look and see- it's wacky- but it's typical of me.

4. I say, hand out some enlistment forms every Sunday in the church parking

lot or have the local recruiters attend services and ask for some enlistments. They always allow Bush supporters and military to stand in the pulpit.
