NBC News broadcast videotapes of General Boykin, an evangelical Christian, giving a number of speeches while wearing his military uniform at religious functions around the country.
In one speech, the general recalled a Muslim fighter in Somalia who said American forces would never get him because Allah would give him protection.
''Well, you know what I knew -- that my God was bigger than his,'' General Boykin told his audience. ''I knew that my God was a real God, and his was an idol.''

I think it unwise to depend on your God, when you are in battle.

You're like Lucy holding the football for Charlie Brown.
Since you like polls so much, why not cut to the chase and create one that reads
I hate religious people. Do you agree with me, yes or no.
It would certainly make your "ready to pounce" attempts here more efficient.
Yep. That's just the type of stuff I am talking about. Now I hate religious people. Damn that is so whack that it is beyond whack.
Like I said in another thread, I was out of my mind to consider voting Republican. What in the hell was I thinking?

Interesting.
It is said that Jesus forgave people that nailed his hands and feet to a cross, put a crown of thorns on his head, and stuck a sword in his side. However, when he saw people using the Temple of God to make money he became very, very angry and started kicking butt.

Was it because the merchants were making money or was it that they were cheating the people?
I agree that he was stating his beliefs as a born again christian.
The essential lesson was that the Temple of God should be used STRICTLY for the glorification of God and nothing else.
That's ok, but don't be saying things like that publicly while at the same time representing the U.S. government. We don't need people out killing people in the name of the U.S. government and saying that they are doing it for God.
