I just know this is going to work.
To hell with the sick and the poor.
:smack: Damn! Why didn’t I think of that? :rolleyes:
“It is our hope that seeing and hearing some of the nation’s most powerful preachers gathered around a gas station…”
Bwhaaa… when I’m sitting in church this Sunday I’ll still be laughing over this one. Have they no sense of appropriateness or perspective?
I was channel flipping a few days ago and I came across Pat Robertson explaining that the environmentalists are totally responsible for high gas prices. The poor oil companies would love to drill in ANWR and build new refineries, but those nasty greens just won’t let them.
I tuned out about then, but I guess maybe we should be praying to convert those tree huggers into good capitolists.
What, you think they can’t pray for more than one thing at a time? :rolleyes:
That said, I won’t pray for lower gas prices. I don’t think it’s appropriate.
I admit I’ve never thought about this before, but praying to influence corporate policy and the international oil market is just tacky. Compare:
a. “LET MY PEOPLE GO!” -Moses
b. “LET MY PEOPLE NOT BE INCONVENIENCED!” -Wenda Royster
Well shee-it Cleetus… whys don’t we just pray for that dang Cold Fusion thing to work? :smack:
I think you need to bring a gas can in with you to church.
I’d like to help, but I’ll be too busy praying for the return of 2 for $2 Quarter-Pounders at McDonald’s.
Oh, Lord.
Heretic! You should be praying for another return of the McRib!
Hey, could you ask Him to bring back the McPizza, while you’re at it? I loved those.
Actually, when you’re barely scraping by high gas prices can mean poverty for you. I can completely understand praying for low gas prices, aside from the fact that I don’t believe in prayer.
Not me. I figure every state and nation should have just one. I certainly don’t want eco-freaks trying to proliferate those things.
What he said.
I knew this board was anti-faith and all that, but damn. This is just mean.
It really sounded like a joke to me… :dubious:
Your post could have been a joke too but it sounded serious.
How does Mr Robertson justify his policies’ poor stewardship of God’s Creation?
By putting his fingers in his ears and singing, “La la la! I can’t hear you!”
Maybe I’ll pray for some folks to be blessed with a sense of humor. :rolleyes:
Dear god,
Please give poor people wings.
Bless the beasts and the children.
Peace on earth.
… and I’d like a Jetson’s car that goes BLIUUUUUUUUUuuuuuuuuuuu
Amen.
