My assertion would be "God's well be done, no matter who's in the oval office". We elected a civic leader. We didn't elect a religious leader. I already have one, and his name is Jesus. I don't nead another. And I don't want my civic leaders telling me how I should be worshipping.Originally posted by KenH:
Would you be saying the same thing if Senator Kerry had won?
Why, yes, Ken, I would. Didn't you read my Election Prayers?Would you be saying the same thing if Senator Kerry had won?
What I have found is that the media likes to create these perceptions that people of one country hate another etc etc in order to sell media. Pretty sad really.Originally posted by LadyEagle:
Daisy, many Christians overseas were praying about this election and were hoping George Bush would win. I saw a program the other day where some Christian leaders from all over the world were here praying - Christian pastors from Vietnam, India, Nigeria, and others - even FRANCE!
It opened my eyes. I am so used to all the negativity towards America in the press and reported opinions from other countries about how they hate Americans, I had forgotten that Bible-Believing Christians, the Conservative kind, are all over the world and really do love America - why? Because more likely than not, it was an American missionary who introduced them to the Gospel of Jesus Christ. These pastors and Christian leaders from all over the world were here to "thank America" for the Gospel and to show their gratitude and support and concern over this election. That program really blessed my heart.
How long did it take to capture the UniBomber in our own country and some other notorious criminals? It takes a while to find a needle in a haystack.Originally posted by BillyMac:

What I said.Originally posted by Gup20:
I live in Minnesota - can't get much farther North than that...If by North you mean Canada, and by overseas you mean other countries, then perhaps that is true.
No, they didn't.Canada has banned the Bible as hate speech, so it doesn't seem unreasonable that they don't like Bush.
And the ones that are? The US is not the whole world or even most of it.The vast majority of overseas countries are not Christian countries... so that makes sense as well.
They didn't know who the UniBomber was or where he stayed until his brother turned him in. It's not like he put out a videotape of himself bragging of his deeds. It's not like they had troops moving in on him & he got away.Originally posted by KenH:

But he didn't identify himself, did he?Originally posted by KenH:
They had the UniBomber's letters.
Alas and alack!There's no point in arguing about it now. Senator Kerry lost in spite of bin Laden not being captured or killed(that we know of).
Sour grapes will not help the Kerry supporters reverse the decision of the American people.
That's called a "lame duck". That is, a person in office who isn't beholden to appeasing anyone for the purpose of getting voted in again.Originally posted by LadyEagle:
What I predict will happen now...we will see GW Bush's true character. We will see what he is really made of.
There is no more pandering to groups of different people to get votes for the next election. No worry of offending one group or another because of potential votes. That pressure is totally eliminated now.
No - the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob in whom we have salvation through Jesus. The God the Muslims worship is the prince of this earth, Satan.</font>[/QUOTE]Be sure to explain that to Dubya, he seems to be having some problems with it at the momentOriginally posted by Gup20:
