President George W. Bush said his belief that God created the world is not incompatible with the scientific theory of evolution.

is it just me, or did Pres Bush just go back on all that he has been saying for the last 10 plus years!

Interviewer Cynthia McFadden asked Bush if the Bible was literally true.

"You know. Probably not. ... No, I'm not a literalist, but I think you can learn a lot from it, but I do think that the New Testament for example is ... has got ... You know, the important lesson is 'God sent a son,"' Bush said.

and this...

The president also said that he prays to the same God as those with different religious beliefs.

"I do believe there is an almighty that is broad and big enough and loving enough that can encompass a lot of people," Bush said.

My belief that GWB is a born again Chrstian and a conservative was dashed years ago. He's a Christian, no doubt, but he doesn't believe the same way most 'fundies' believe; there's the Bible and Christianity and then there's everything else. God is not a humanist nor does He embrace those that worship false gods. I hope Mr. Bush comes to the Truth....soon!

"I'm just a simple President."

Btw, evolution is absolutely compatible with Creation. However, it's not compatible with a literal interpretation of Genesis. It sounds like Bush believes in evolution and not in a literal Genesis. Or maybe he just doesn't have a clue.

Well, apparently Obama thinks that killing unborn children isn't incompatible with his Christian faith.

So.........there ya' go.

Saying 'Yeah, but...someone else is worse' doesn't change the topic. Mr. Bush is not who I thought he was and I'm willing to bet I'm not alone.

Think about it though. How many other believers are not who you thought they were? We live in an unprecedented time in our church history: We live in a time when, although 80% of our population claims to be Christian, only about 60% read the Bible once a week. A little less than half of professed Christians believe that Satan is a real person rather than a "symbol of evil." In terms of the church as a whole we've seen the systematic dismantling of crucial elements of our faith pertaining to morality and the stability of the family unit. Not only are some congregations openly accepting homosexual leadership, but some are brazenly open to "every wind of teaching" the likes of which would send the apostle's Peter and Paul reeling from their feet.

So Bush's acceptance of evolution, while sad, is minor in comparison to the apostasy currently taking place in our very midst. And tragically, very few people are even talking about it, much less doing anything about it.

I agree...so many that I used to think were Bible believing Christians have turned out to be anything but. I thought Mr. Bush believed like me, I was wrong and I determined to never again base my vote on what I hear politicians say about their faith. I'm at a loss though as to what we, the public, can do about the beliefs (or lack thereof) of elected officials. Other than not vote for them.
