God is not neutral. – George W. Bush
We’re suffering from too many people invoking God on their side. – Barney Frank
The only time during the President’s speech last night that I cringed was when he said, “God is not neutral.” It might be momentarily inspirational, but it’s goofy. What side was God on during the Civil War? Or during our wars against the Indians? Or between the Hutu’s and Tutsi’s? Or the war between Afganistan and the Soviet Union? Or between the US and North Vietnam?
We best be asking God for guidance, and not assuming we’re right in everything we do.
