The religious right in the United States is exclusively an American phenomenon; it is a politicized form of Christianity, a Pharisee strain that uses the word of God for political gain. When they do use the word of God as a point of reference, it is always out of context and a complete perversion in what God intended it to originally mean. The religious right has made an unholy alliance with the criminal element within the Bush administration; this convergence of interests between the Christian evangelical dispensationalists and the neocons is nothing short of apostasy for the church ....In light of what we know about the Bush administrations’ fabrications and outright lies concerning the threat posed to the United States by Iraq, the lead up to the war was a direct violation of the 9th commandment “Thou shall not bear false witness”. And as the result of all the lies by that Christian sitting in the White House, thousands of people have been murdered in direct violation of the 6th commandment.
Falwell is not above coming up with complete fabrications of his own when he writes – “President Bush declared war in Iraq to defend innocent people. This is a worthy pursuit.” President Bush never declared war against Iraq, in fact, Congress never declared war against Iraq even though they are constitutionally required to do so. The invasion of Iraq was constitutionally illegal, it was also an international illegal act of war, and the part about defending innocent people is almost laughable if it was not so tragic, thousand’s have been lost and continue to be lost, for no justifiable reasons, the pious Falwell again conveniently disregards this reality.
