Yes, that is completely true and it has nothing at all
to do with the Christianity practiced by Jimmy Carter
or Bill Clinton or Bob Dole.

What it DOES accurately reflect is the LEFT BEHIND
fanaticism that has swept large portions of the
fundamentalist community (as opposed to evangelical)
and it definitely represents the position of the wing
of Christianity that W and many of his cohorts have
openly identified themselves with.

Your use of quotes here is dishonest to a degree that
borders on despicable..

No one said they were yours but they most definitely
are related to his.

No, but the AUTHORS of LEFT BEHIND do.  And the
churches who have pushed the books with utter
passionate frenzy do.
