Thanks to Allen for this link: Bush's Religious Language
I want to know why God should look on us more favorably than other nations, considering the damage the USA is doing to God's creation (among other things!). I wonder if Bush has thought of that. If Bush really thought that we deserved God's favor, shouldn't he do his best to work for it?
Stam makes the point that:
"Given that state of sublime innocence in his own country, like Adam and Eve in paradise, Bush can muster only one explanation for the terrorists' hatred of his nation: "There are people who hate freedom." In other words, they are so evil that they abhor the good because it is good. (But if the terrorists hate freedom, why have they not attacked Canada, which in some respects is more democratic than the United States? Why is there not the same hatred for Switzerland, Holland or Costa Rica?)"
This article makes so many good points. Go read it already.
