[kj] OT:Bible belt

[ade]

How ridiculous that these nations are aguing over who's god is
the biggest!

I agree Peter, but I think the war is an almalgation of all
sorts of things. I don't really believe that Bush is particularly
religious, but he has big support from the pious in his cuntry.
They're all voters, so it makes sense to please them. I certainly
appreciate that there are many pious prix out there that want Bush
to go deal with those eastern unbelievers (how interesting, the
mirroring of objectives between these two aggressors - pointed out
in the Power of Nightmares thing) but I'm sure he's driven only by
gain.

But yes, religion has been a major factor in getting Bush in twice
& bombing the East.

Im beginning to think this war is nt about oil,If that was the case Saudi
would have been a target,I think this has turned into a modern day
Crusade,"Teach the Muslims who the real God is" type of thing.
   As religion is the cause of most wars and unrest,It's time this form of
mysticism is either banned,discouraged or at least scaled down.
    Just before the troops went into Iraq,Saddam said" In the name of Allah
we shall win" and George W said "By the grace of God....................
  Forget, Predator v Alien.We have Allah v God happening on the big screen
now.Fallugah was heavily bombed last night,10 000 American troops poised to
go in,We d better hope the Iraqis turn and run,If they stand and fight the
casualties will be huge.

long time, and burns even more so now: why the f*ck are people in
Mississippi and Alabama more frightened of a terrorist attack than the
people in New York?!?!
