[Ronnie Raygun]

Bush never said that GOD should take the place of govt.'s responsibility.

He and many other Americans are Christian. The American public knew that when he was running for office. Why should he now stop being himself just because he's president?

" every bad situation i have been in i have worked my ass off to get out of. no one, with the exception of a few family members and friends has helped me. no divine intervention, nothing. "

I think you see the flaw in that.

You would have no way of knowing if GOD helped you or not anyway......unless you had that relationship.
