This country was founded by a group of men who wanted to get away from a country with a leader who was supposedly directly descended from God (divine right of king's anyone?) ... they wanted a country that didn't have a specific religion. Were they religious men? Sure, but they sure didn't want to be governed by any god.

Plus, they didn't want to pay taxes to England anymore.

I think it's being misled by an incompetent man.

Does god vote, pay taxes or hold office? If not he shouldnt complain.
My point being who knows? Who can quantify it? Irrelevent.

Is God pleased with the US government?

Well, YOU tell ME. If you think he exists, you tell me what he "thinks". If he isn't pleased then why doesn't he get his thumb out and do something???

4 words.

Who would Jesus bomb.

I doubt Cheney will be entering the pearly gates.

Away from the use of religion
To justify the lack of justice in governance
Do you speak here of justice Bush?
Or you are just speaking about God?
I wish to let God rule in heaven with the angels
We are talking about human beings govern land
George Bush is not a god
It is also Chairman of the Division hated as you say
But America is not governed by the Bush unit
America governed by the social system
America governed by the economic system
I know that religion and faith is important for people
Coffee task
Important food
Whisky important
Educational children's education task
American dream is important
All this must be done on earth, not in heaven
Earth system of being unfair to the people
Bush is not wrong in itself
If there was an error is an error on the ground
It is not in heaven
If the error in the sky is far from the people
Wrong in the public system
America must renew public system
Justice among all citizens
Thank you all
