I was watching the news about President Bush in Africa and heard him say that EVIL exists in the world (no doubt) and that we must confront it. If the "we" includes me I would like more explanation. Our confrontations for the last several decades have been either ineffectual or disastrous - both I guess. According to the Bible, God one time really got upset and decided to confront EVIL with a big flood. This was pretty effective I guess, and did not require any bombs. Could it be that with all the floods, earthquakes, tornadoes, storms, and fires the US has been having, that God is demonstrating the he is sufficiently capable to "confront EVIL", He has plenty of WMD to do the job, and does not need any expensive defense contracts? Actually I guess the President is in Africa to make some kind of arrangements to protect the oil, since the US gets a lot of it from there. He says "no new bases" (is that like "no new taxes"). Well he did not say "read my lips" so MAYBE we can believe him, but I suppose it will be "permanent" bases there too - keep that old Minyak Tanah flowing!! EVIL does exist, but another thing from the Bible: "Vengeance is mine, says the Lord."
