If it wasn't for the WMD's that didn't exist then have we all been lied to? Now of course the free thinkers here know the answer to that already... But what will the Christian thinkers do now?
Which part of Christian teaching allows politicians to lie? Which part of Christian teachings allow the killing of 100's of innocent Iraqi's and soldiers of our forces in an illegal war? Which part of Christian thinking allows lies to be told in a parliament as justification for a war? Does Christ say anything on these matters??
Right wing Christians who have continually justified this war have now been placed in a horrible position... they can either follow Christ and Christ's teachings OR they can follow the Bush, Blair, Howard consortium.
It's fine Christians wanting to ask our politicians questions but will they ask the right ones - or will there political biases get in the way of honesty?
I'm sorry right wingers.. the jig is up... Christ is watching... be sure that your name hasn't been added to the alleged book along with those you decry here. Your day of judgment is now at hand... Good luck with that...Ha!
The road is narrow... I hope you make the right choice!...Ha!
