*w's religious wisdom
*w: "On the other hand, I don't see how you can be president — at least from my perspective, how you can be president, without a relationship with the Lord,"

There's a discussion about that quotation, in the context of Jews serving as president in the General Discussion forum. I think it applies to us, when you read the whole article. Apparently, the apple doesn't fall far from the tree, when it comes to religious bigotry. Also, I guess we should thank him for having the privilege of living in America, but don't dare think about leading this country.

:grr:

The article from the Wash, Times:
President Bush said yesterday that he doesn't "see how you can be president without a relationship with the Lord," but that he is always mindful to protect the right of others to worship or not worship. . . . Mr. Bush told editors and reporters of The Washington Times yesterday in an interview in the Oval Office that many in the public misunderstand the role of faith in his life and his view of the proper relationship between religion and the government. . . ."I think people attack me because they are fearful that I will then say that you're not equally as patriotic if you're not a religious person," Mr. Bush said. "I've never said that. I've never acted like that. I think that's just the way it is.
