Why our Bible is the best!
by nvrgnbk inhere is an interesting prologue i recently found while perusing bibles at my local christian bookstore.... as the holy scriptures that were meticulously transmitted to our ancient brethren form the basis of our undying faith in the sovereign lord almighty, the importance of their accurate translation is of utmost concern to all of the consecrated.
tragically, the enemy of our salvation, satan, and his earthly agents have spared no effort in their attempts to adulterate the purest thoughts of the most high.
the means used were often so subtly insidious that it's only after the passage of centuries that contradictions in renderings and spurious verses have become apparent to the faithful.

Pathological President defends Iraq War
by nvrgnbk inbush defends iraq war in speech by steven lee myerspublished: march 20, 2008washington president bush used the fifth anniversary of the start of the war in iraq on wednesday to make the case for persevering in a conflict that could have many more anniversaries.
democrats accused him of lacking a strategy to win and withdraw.. mr. bush, speaking before members of the armed forces and defense officials at the pentagon, said in his frankest acknowledgment yet that the costs of the war, in lives and money, had been higher and longer lasting than he had anticipated.
but he remained unwavering in his insistence that the invasion of iraq, which began in march 2003, had made the world better and the united states safer.. "five years into this battle, there is an understandable debate over whether the war was worth fighting, whether the fight is worth winning, and whether we can win it," he said.
