I quite agree that alcoholism explains a great part of Bush's character and especially his recovery from alcoholism which, as I understand it, has been effectuated as a result of his born-again experience with Billy Graham. Thus Bush's alcoholism, or more appropriately his recovery from alcoholism, should be understood in a Christian context which is fully congruent with the import of my post.

I would add the narcissism/grandiosity of the self-anointed to the mix, along with a warning from history that much good, as well as much evil, has enfurled itself in the banner of religious enlightenment through the centuries. It's that stuff with which the road to earthly hell is paved.

I’m a recovering alcoholic and a Christian, and for the life of me I can’t understand a blooming thing this president does.

A Christian should be able to balance a sense of right and wrong with love and charity. If one leans too much to either side, you either become a pharisee or a liberal.
