God, and Man, in the Oval

The National Council of Churches (NCC), together with a
number of peace organizations, recently ran an ad on CNN and
Fox in which a bishop of the United Methodist Church, to
which President Bush belongs, criticized the Bush
administration's relentless war rhetoric. Going to war with
Iraq "violates God's law and the teachings of Jesus Christ,"
said the bishop.
