-Caveat Lector- http://www.presidentialprayerteam.org/index.htm "People across this country are praying.

We pray that God will bless and receive each of the fallen, and we thank God that liberty found such brave defenders." --President George W. Bush

ADDITIONAL LEADERS TO PRAY FOR THIS WEEK Photo of Colin Powell courtesy of the White House. Secretary of State Colin Powell Attorney General John Ashcroft Director of the Secret Service Brian L. Stafford White House Chief of Staff Andrew Card >>>I'm confused ... I don't read in any part of the "Bible" about starting wars (but I do recall "blessed are the peacemakers [not 'warmakers']") ... I'm wondering if this is W assuming some role as the emissary of the divinity ("the Gospel according to W(ehrmachter)" ... if "praying for " is supposed to be "preying on" ... now, don't get me wrong: I'm at one with the military but I don't try to contrue their purpose as being in concert with some man-made, -inspired, or -interpreted religious doctrine ... I think if the Nazarene had any political aspirations for his followers, he'd have laid out the plan a little bit more clearly. A<:>E<:>R <<< Forwarded for your information.
