Bush was as much a true Christian as he was an authentic Texas cowboy.

There's no such thing as a "CINO". You're either a Christian or you aren't.

What do you mean by CINO?  Christian in Name Only or Conservative in Name Only?

In any case he's both.

Bush didn't say any of that, some old blog did. I have no opnion on homosexuality, but that's not the only issue used in the quote.

Yes he was. True Christians are not war criminals.

IIRC some of the earlier Popes almost qualified as war criminals.

What percent of members of Congress who claim a Christian label do you think are "true Christians," whatever that might mean to you?

Well about 10-20% of Democrats are Jews or other (like my rep), and another 10-20% support the same anti-Christian policies the Republicans do (I do include in this things like attacking the rights of GLBT people). That averages to roughly only 70% of Democrats. And very few Republicans (How many supported things like torture?) You also have the issue of Catholics who might adhere to their church's anti-Christian teachings but I still include Catholics despite that. That probably equals about 40% of Congress.

Hey I just realized I live in the only district in the country where people have representation in the House and Senate by someone of all three Abrahamic religions!

One can only be christian in name only because it's a matter of interpretation. When I was christian, I may have been a very different christian than my best friend because of the differences of our practices. One can only be christian in name only. In deed is a matter of interpretation.
