However this is politics and I am Judging GWB by his politics, Aieno cannot and should not Judge me, because he doesn't know me and vice versa.
I do not think we are here to call each other names but to debate. If I call GWB evil then prove me wrong, instead Aieno choose to reply with smart little remarks.

On the ohter hand you are not in a position to judge President Bush. If you want to debate Bush's policies that is fine since many Americans do the same; but when you resort to mud slinging keep in mind that the Catholic Church under Urban II started the Crusades and then later Popes instituted the inquistions.
Your views of the Middle East, Bush, Israel, and the Palestinians are not unbiased.
When Pope John Paul II and his expected succussor publicly state that people (including Muslims) can be saved outside faith in Christ they are more evil than Bush ever thought of being.
POTENTIAL POPE DECLARES JESUS IS NOT THE ONLY WAY
Cardinal Francis Arinze, who's considered a possible successor to Pope John Paul II, has denied Jesus is the only way to heaven. In a recent interview the spirited 66 year-old deputy for outreach to other religions was asked, "So was Jesus wrong when he said he was the way, the truth and the life?" Arinze responed, "If a person were to push what you said a little further and say that if you're not a Christian you're not going to heaven, we'd regard that person as a fundamentalist...and theologically wrong. I met in Pakistan a Muslim. He had a wonderful concept of the Koran. We were like two twins that had known one another from birth. And I was in admiration of this man's wisdom. I think that man will go to heaven. There was a Buddhist in Kyoto, in Japan. This man, a good man, open, listening, humble--I was amazed. I listened to his works of wisdom and said to myself, "The grace of God is working in this man." The interviewer then repeated the question, "So you can still get to heaven without accepting Jesus?" "Expressly, yes [he laughs with the audience]" (Dallas Morning News, 3/20/99)
So I stand by my statement; sounds like the pot calling the kettle black.
