 George Bush Papers
George Bush (1796-1859) was a prominent biblical scholar, preacher and controversialist.
The Bush collection is strongest in: 1) documenting the beliefs and practices of Swedenborgians, mystics and spiritualists during the 1840's and 50's; and 2) containing a small number of letters concerning anti-slavery movements.
Bush's correspondence provides insight into Swedenborgian religious views (e.g., their conception of the soul: item 13) and documents a diversity of viewpoints among members of this 'non-traditional' sect (e.g., items 2, 18).

Bush, Gore and the Bible by Mischa Gelman (published 4/18/00) Given my earlier column on the hypocrciy and lies of Al Gore, I figured it was only fair to point out some blatant hypocricy on the part of George Bush.
Yet Governor Bush, acting under less guidance than a court of 70, has drastically surpassed both rates, as 55 were executed in Texas in 1998 and 1999.
Gore, seems to ignore other principles of biblical living, such as the notion that one cannot serve both G-d and Mammon - both have pledged their service to the rich and to corporations, ignoring "the least of these" that Jesus advocated for.

Phillips stresses the personal side— George W. Bush's ability to convince many on the religious right that in spite of his silver-spoon background he really is one of them, for example in his born-again belief in the "power of prayer." I suspect there must be more to it than that.

 Whose side is God on this time?
Yet Bush told reporters at the White House last week that he believes in the separation of church and state — although he said it after quoting from the Bible in the previous sentence, then left to address the Baptists by satellite.
Although Bush must relentlessly court his conservative religious base to win re-election — and the country's 63 million Catholic voters could be a key to victory — the president's self-portrayal as a messenger of God is drawing fire.
Bush's "intense religious views" worried 2 per cent of those who will vote to re-elect him, but worry 34 per cent of those who told the pollsters they would vote Kerry.

 JS Online:'Big and biblical': Bush speeches tend to take moral high road
Two years into his presidency, George W. Bush and his speechwriters have developed a distinctive way of speaking to the world, one that has shaped how Bush is viewed both here and abroad.
Bush supporters defend "axis of evil" in the same spirit they credit Reagan for calling the Soviet Union an "Evil Empire" - for laying down a moral marker and giving hope to the oppressed.
Bush's writers, led by Michael Gerson, are credited with making the speeches "soar." But the words have to match the speaker.

 pumpkinhead column: george w. bush - heretic
According to Christian scholar Dr. Robert Morey, "During WWII, Japanese and Korean Christians who refused to worship...at Shinto shrines were put to death." Japanese Christian Rev. Isaac Ishiguro says, "According to the Shinto ritual, clapping hands and bows are [the] Shinto style of worship...The verb 'SANPAI' in Japanese means SAN=visit or go [and] PAI=worship.
In Japanese all the media reported, 'Bush SANPAIed at Meiji shrine.' The other reason we as Japanese strongly believe that Bush did worship at Meiji shrine [is] because prime minister Koizumi could not participate with Bush according to the Japanese Constitution.
If Bush is a Christian then he has committed such serious sins that until and unless he repents of them he is not fit to hold office.

Bush is in a position to seriously undermine and harm the world's perception of Christian beliefs and doctrines with Bush wrong statements of doctrine and beliefs, elevation of Islam, and promoting of gays, and wrongly trying to divide God’s land in Israel.
