I agree with the gist of your post, but heres a bit of nit-picking :

Presidents take an oath, before God, to protect the people of the United States.

Presidents of the US take an oath to defend and protect the constitution of the US.

(seems to me us immigrants are learning lot more that homegrown american folks)

Well, this is totally OT. Let me end with:

1. I was making my post to Sun, who has said he is not Christian. So, obviously, isn't trying to be a "good one".
2. I didn't say anything anywhere about Bush in the exchange. Don't know where you got the "challenging Bush on whether or not he rises to your definition of a good Christian."
3. I guess you missed it, but much of it was ironic. If I was making fun of anyone, it was myself, as when I said:

<So accuracy cannot be assumed. Except for myself, of course. And perhaps a few others who tend to see the same things I do, thereby proving their accuracy.>

As a general rule, don't take a poster too seriously, when the header is anything like:

<the phase of the moon or the number of roaches in the building>

or

<I-Ching, creationism, and why Penguins exist>

Those are hints that perhaps he's not being too deadly serious.
