My friend Alan Kishbaugh sent this to me. Although I make an effort to accept other's beliefs when it comes to religion, like most Americans I want a division of church and state.

I'm sorry to say that as hard as I try, I find it extremely difficult to understand how people today see the Bible as "the word of God." He's not my god, nor a large proportion of other Americans. A lot of church going folks have managed to deal with their version of a more modern God successfully. The problem is with the evangelicals that believe in the Bible literally like Bush Jr. In my worst nightmare, I could not have imagined a more dangerous president. Like Alan said, Bush Jr. was a bigger nut case than we knew." Now the pitiful Republicans want to blame Obama for the mess we're in.

The revelation this month in GQ Magazine that Donald Rumsfeld as Defense Secretary embellished top-secret wartime memos with quotations from the Bible prompts a question. Why did he believe he could influence President Bush by that means?

The answer may lie in an alarming story about George Bush's Christian millenarian beliefs that has yet to come to light.
