Subject: America's foreign policy is arrogant idolatrous blasphemous blabber

Jim Wallis in "God's Politics":

The real theological problem in America today is no longer the religious right, but the nationalist religion of the Bush administration, one that confuses the identity of the nation with the church, and God's purposes with the mission of American empire. America's foreign policy is more than pre-emptive, it is theologically presumptuous; not only unilateral, but dangerously messianic; not just arrogant, but rather bordering on the idolatrous and blasphemous. ... This is a dangerous mix of bad foreign policy and bad theology.
