The USA Constitution clearly states that there shall be a separation of church and state. Apparently, though many of us believed the 43rd president was violating that concept, it has become more overt that he, indeed, was believing that God was telling him to make the war in the Middle East. Bill Maher said he doesn't want to be governed by 'people in Congress who believe in talking snakes.' Well, I don't want the country run who byh someone who things he is having a dialogue with God.
A few days ago this article appeared. Click here. "Bush explained to French Pres. Chirac that the Biblical creatures Gog and Magog were at work in the Mid-East and must be defeated." "In 2003 while lobbying leaders to put together the Coalition of the Willing, President Bush spoke to France's President Jacques Chirac. Bush wove a story about how the Biblical creatures Gog and Magog were at work in the Middle East and how they must be defeated.
In Genesis and Ezekiel Gog and Magog are forces of the Apocalypse who are prophesied to come out of the north and destroy Israel unless stopped. The Book of Revelation took up the Old Testament prophesy:
"And when the thousand years are expired, Satan shall be loosed out of his prison, And shall go out to deceive the nations which are in the four quarters of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them together to battle and fire came down from God out of heaven, and devoured them."
Bush believed the time had now come for that battle, telling Chirac:
"This confrontation is willed by God, who wants to use this conflict to erase his people's enemies before a New Age begins"."
The moral of the story is we need to change the way we choose our elected officials. They need to understand the job and how to do it by themselves since God may not be listening when you need a direction.
