This seems like a good day to remind anybody who’s interested of what I think: The war in Iraq is not only illegal and immoral, but contrary to Christian doctrine. Christ teaches peace and love. It’s nice that George W. Bush, who put his hand on a Bible to take his oath, went and prayed for the troops today. I pray that hypocracy doesn’t get him him popped like popcorn in hell.

Master, which is the great commandment in the law?
Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.
This is the first and great commandment.
And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy
neighbour as thyself.
On these two commandments hang all the law and
the prophets.
Matthew 22:36-40

I was struck by a line in the movie Cold Mountain. Something like, “I imagine the Lord gets weary of being called down on both sides of an argument.”

Not in my name. And not in the name of my faith.
