George Bush's parallel world of faith

Wearisome Bedfellows

A short quote from an interesting essay on the state and quality of George Bush's mind:

Like a good Methodist (and most Protestants) Bush presumably accepts the doctrine of sola fide, which holds that, as the Methodist Discipline has it, "we are never accounted righteous before God through our works or merit, but...only by faith."

Comments

I need to ask a favor. Two of my friends are in trouble at my school. I think waht they did isn't that bad. All they did was on a news paper that was given in class, and crossed out John Kerry and George Bush. The teachers said that if the FBI found about this, that it would be considered a threat. They didn't mean it that way, and the teachers know that. What my favor is, is that is it really considered a threat what they did? Please give me some information, I need to help out my friends. -needing help

How do you feel?

Feel free to share your feelings about George Bush's parallel world of faith. Please stick to the theme of the entry. Disagreement is fine. Homophobia, racism, and kindred expressions of hatred will be deleted. This site is one of my hobbies. I genuinely enjoy hearing from people and hate moderating or killing comments. Forthright disagreement is fine as long as it is civil.
My thanks,
Richard
