How many times have you heard that George Bush is a religious zealot or that he wants to "force" his religion on you?

Loads.

How many times has it happened?

None.

Then again, how many times has John Kerry used a church pulpit to give a political speech?

Twice in the last 3 weeks.

Bush?

None.

John Kerry, a "Catholic" who supports partial-birth abortion.

If John Kerry was really a Catholic, he would attend Catholic Mass every Sunday instead of "preaching" (campaigning) in black Protestant churches.

Being Catholic is not politically expedient for preaching from the pulpit. The Catholic Church allows only ordained priests and deacons to preach, and Kerry never advanced beyond altar boy. You know, separation of church and state!

Kerry is busy talking about God, while his actions contradict God's written Word. Bush doesn't talk about God much, but he reads God's word, and frequently asks Him for advice.

What was that line from St. James' Epistle about "faith without works is dead"? Indeed!!! Let's all vote accordingly!!!

During the Demo convention, I don't recall a single mention of God. However during the Republican convention God was mentioned several times and with pride.
It wasn't til the closing remarks of the last debate that Kery even mentioned God.

One thing I've never heard Bush do is quote a Bible passage to indict the opposition with it. I think anyone who respects the scripture is seriously offended by that.

Kerry is currently being charged with heresy in the Catholic Church,
he may be close to being ex-communicated for his stance on abortion,
the power of the Catholic (Kennedy) Diocese in Boston has been
decimated by the child molestation charges, no more clout there for
Kerry or Kennedy. Kerry is charged for heresy for his stance on
pro-choice. The Church may be pulling away from the old days of
aligning themselves with politicians like Kerry and Kennedy who are
adamantly pro-choice, yet claim to be staunch Catholics.

Remember the second debate about pro-choice? Kerry slipped up,
he said pro-choice was good for third world countries to help
prevent "unwanted children".

Kerry wants it both ways, the pro-choice and the Catholic vote.

If I remember correctly when Kerry said his favorite bible verse...he misquoted the wrong quote...and blamed it on his campaign. Typical Kerryism.

Not to worry - I'm sure the ACLU will be after Kerry, Je$$e Jack$son and Al $harpton for openly campaigning in so many churches.

Yeah, right. Rolling Eyes

What about Carter. Even Clinton quoted stuff all the time. The far left is trying to scare people, W is a Methodist, not some nut.

Thank you for posting this because it is the truth. I am sick and tired of Bush being defamed while that man uses and exploits religion, and goes to churches to further his political agenda. Twisted Evil
