President Bush believes all religions pray to the same God
From a post I wrote earlier this year about the same subject:
"I'm amazed at how many people focus on the terminology of "God" rather than on the nature of God. It's extremely popular today to believe that people are just using different terms for the same God. What's odd to me is that people don't look any deeper than the argument of terminology. The terms are labels for things, or beings, that ultimately point to the nature of a thing or being. In other words, the nature of Islam's Allah is vastly different than the nature of the Christian God. To reduce these differences in nature down to a mix-up on terminology is a remarkably shallow approach to understanding who God is. The next time someone says, "You worship the same God, you're just using different terms for Him," remind them that your God is much more than a term, and you're worshiping Him in the fullness of His very nature, and His nature is incomparable. Truly, as Isaiah repeatedly says, there is none like Him."

this was a completly stupid comment by our president who is supposidly christian.i Am not saying that he is not christian but come on if he was would he not no that the bible says that there is only one god and that the hindues and other religions pray to many gods.
That's truly disappointing. I believe our president is a Christian, but I've heard him say other things like that so he doesn't get himself into "doctrinal" trouble. Although, the idea of other gods really shouldn't be a doctrinal issue because Christians should know better. Yikes.
