The most psycho-insane prayer for the President to come out of FreakRepublic
I'm posting the entire thing so you need not go there. If you want to read the comments you can search on FR.

The title is "PRAY for our Nation & President-Elect/President Obama - Day 69 Inauguration day"

All I can say about this person's prayer is it's the absolute height of arrogance and ungodliness. He/she says that it is God's will that Obama be President, and then they go on to qualify it by pretending to know God has chosen Obama because he is unhappy with America. It's a punishment.

The sickness in this person's mind is sad to see. I know there are many Christians on DU. This prayer will surely offend any true Christian.


Father God, Today marks the end of an era. We say goodbye to President Bush and hello to President Obama. And deep in our hearts, we know this is not a good thing for this nation. But, we also know that it is within Your will that this man is ascending to these ranks, and we know t is for a reason. Again, my heart tells me that the reason is not good - for it means that judgment of some degree has come to America. Our nation has forsaken You. In her churches, the flesh is catered to and the Word left begging. In her homes, every sort of filth is embraced and children are raised by a state hostile to biblical values. In our government, we have a bunch of ravenous beasts all fighting over who gets the power, who gets the photo op, who can destroy the country first. Then, there are the believers in this land, who haven't bowed their knee to Baal. We weep for what we see Lord. We weep for our nation. And we are afraid that with the inauguration of President Obama, we will also be saying goodbye to her. I do not know what this nation will have become 4 years from now. But based upon his stated policies, I know that there will be a sifting in the house of God and pray that when all is done You will indeed still find true faith in America. I pray for Your strength for each one who prays here and for those who don't just to endure what we are about to endure. I pray if persecution comes, we will be found worthy to stand and given grace to do so. And, I pray, if there be any way possible, that You would send someone with the gospel to President Obama.

In all things and in every way, Lord, I pray for You to be glorified and I bow to Your will tonight. I confess I'm fearful at what will happen. But, You are my God, and You said You would never leave nor forsake those who love You, so I place my faith and trust in You, even in the midst of this national storm.

Go with us Lord. Be with the Bushes as the return to Texas. And, may America repent of the evils which she has done. May she repent of her abortions, sexual sins, and selfishness. May she return to her first love - that You may be pleased with her once more. And may the world know that there is still a God in America.

Protect those who know You. Protect Israel. Protect our men and women who are about to get a new Commander in Chief. And we love You and praise You, in Jesus' name, Amen.

The day has come. Pray for our nation. She needs it now as never before.


Yes, the day has come. The day has come when people like FR's "Blogger" lose any and all semblance of truth and honesty.

I don't presume to know God's thoughts as you do, Blogger, but I would wager anything he is disgusted with your prayer.

4. I wonder about people sometimes...
What would America be like, if a rough third of the population didn't withdraw into their imaginary world within a persecution complex? Seriously these men and women are sick - on an honest, psychological level, they are unwell. They feel their lives are without meaning if they are not being oppressed, so they create these imaginary oppressions and offenses in order to generate some sense of self-worth.

5. Mental health services and education have been underfunded for far too long.

Good for the crazed fundies (not really, but it adds to their numbers), but bad for the planet and other living things.

38. They care about Israel
only so that God will have someone to smite when he returns.

They need Israel to rebuild the Temple and hurry-up the Armageddon. They want Jews to be "perfected" (see Ann Coulter for reference). If the Jews aren't "perfected" and finally accept Jesus Christ as their savior, they will all burn in hell with the rest of us.

In other words, the Freakers love Israel, so long as they accept Jeebus.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Reminds me of a great comedy routine by that guy who plays Mr Beans. He plays the devil in hell looking over all his minions.

"What? You need to use the restroom? Well, should have thought of that before you left, huh? We don't call this hell for nothing, ya know"

"Are there any Christians out there? Oh, sorry, but...it seems the Jews were right. Bet you all feel kind of silly 'bout now, eh?"

12. Glaring Omission??? - Nowhere in this prayer is a prayer for Obama...
You'd think that a true Christian would invoke the blessings of God upon a new president.

13. welcome to DU
And.. way to creep us out.

What scares me is the sincerity. I have prayed with the same sincerity for eight years... and my prayer is coming true, much later than I'd expected, but it's coming true nevertheless. I really don't want to associate myself with the sincerity of a person who believes that a return to democracy is somehow a bad thing.

I get the distress of the people who think abortion is wrong--I don't feel that way myself, but I recognize that it's a debatable point and I realize that their beliefs, though different from mine, are heartfelt. Other than that... what can these people POSSIBLY see as a problem with the return of democracy, the end of signing statements, the restoration of the first and fourth amendments, and the return of "of the people, by the people, for the people" instead of restricting all those things just to rich people? I honestly don't understand what these freepers are worried about.

14. In our government, we have a bunch of ravenous beasts........
"In our government, we have a bunch of ravenous beasts all fighting over who gets the power, who gets the photo op, who can destroy the country first."

This is true. However, tomorrow, the main culprits of this will be out of our government. There are still a ton of them there but the worst of the worst with the most power are leaving.

This is an anti-prayer. How arrogant. I'm sure God was really pleased to hear this one.

15. If God has a remote, you know He switched the channel when this loathsome "prayer" was incoming...
These people are hopeless and helpless. They will never understand that they -- all of us, really -- are *IT*! No sky deities, no bowing to skulls on some altar, no divine intervention.

But by now, they've enmeshed their right-wing politics so deeply into their religion that they are actually dangerous, "acting" out what they think is God's will.

39. Better yet, why don't we all send them the "Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch"
Book of Armaments (Chapter 2, verses 9-21),

"And Saint Attila raised the hand grenade up on high, saying, "O Lord, bless this Thy hand grenade that with it Thou mayest blow Thine enemies to tiny bits, in Thy mercy." And the Lord did grin and the people did feast upon the lambs and sloths and carp and anchovies and orangutans and breakfast cereals, and fruit bats.

And the Lord spake, saying, "First shalt thou take out the Holy Pin, then shalt thou count to three, no more, no less. Three shall be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be three. Four shalt thou not count, neither count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out. Once the number three, being the third number, be reached, then lobbest thou thy Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch towards thy foe, who being naughty in my sight, shall snuff it." Amen

41. I could discern their twisted logic just from your synopsis
"He/she says that it is God's will that Obama be President, and then they go on to qualify it by pretending to know God has chosen Obama because he is unhappy with America. It's a punishment."

Um, if it's God's will that Obama become president, then surely God has the power to fix whatever it is He doesn't like about America without resorting to "punishments."

Typical freep logic. :eyes:
