When Minister Joe Wright was asked to open the new session of the Kansas
Senate, everyone was expecting the usual generalities, but this is what they
heard:
"Heavenly Father, we come before you today to ask your forgiveness and to
seek your direction and guidance. We know your word says, "Woe to those who
call evil good, but that is exactly what we have done." we have lost our
spiritual equilibrium and reversed our Values.
We confess that we have ridiculed the absolute truth of Your word and call
it Pluralism.
We have exploited the poor and called it the lottery.
We have rewarded laziness and called it welfare.
We have killed our unborn and called it choice.
We have shot the abortionists and called it justifiable.
We have neglected to discipline our children and called it building self
esteem.
We have abused power and called it politics.
We have coveted our neighbor's possessions and called it ambition.
We have polluted the air with profanity and pornography and called it
freedom of expression.
We have ridiculed the time-honored values of our forefathers and called it
enlightenment.
Search us, Oh, God, and know our hearts today; cleanse us from every sin
and set us free.
Amen!"
The response was immediate. A number of legislators walked out during the
prayer in protest.....
In 6 short weeks, Central Christian Church, where Rev. Wright is pastor,
logged more than 5,000 phonecalls with only 47 of those calls responding
negatively. The church is now receiving international request for copies of
this prayer from India, Africa and Korea.
Commentator Paul Harvey aired this prayer on his radio program, "The Rest of
the Story," and received a larger response to this program than any other he
has ever aired.
With the Lord's help, may this prayer sweep over our nation and
wholeheartedly become our desire so that we again can be called "one natiion
under God."
If possible, please pass this prayer on to your friends. "If you don't stand
for something, you will fall for everything."

Nothing more than the pandering ego trip from a wannabe street preacher.
Why do you motherfuckers claim to be Christians(tm), but constantly go
against the Word of God(tm)? Did any of you stupid idiots bother to actually
*READ the fucking Bible before you committed your lives to mindless
brainwashing and public displays of ignorance?
Matthew 6:1 - 6:8 ~
6:1 Take heed that ye do not your alms before men, to be seen of them:
otherwise ye have no reward of your Father which is in heaven.
6:2 Therefore when thou doest thine alms, do not sound a trumpet before
thee, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they
may have glory of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.
6:3 But when thou doest alms, let not thy left hand know what thy right hand
doeth:
6:4 That thine alms may be in secret: and thy Father which seeth in secret
himself shall reward thee openly.
6:5 And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are: for they
love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets,
that they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.
6:6 But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast
shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which
seeth in secret shall reward thee openly.
6:7 But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they
think that they shall be heard for their much speaking.
6:8 Be not ye therefore like unto them: for your Father knoweth what things
ye have need of, before ye ask him.
For you Biblically Illiterate fuckheads, that means:
1. Quit being a braggart about all of your alleged 'good deeds;'
2. Loud, repititious prayer in public only serves yourself and your own,
pitiful ego. It is nothing more than a public display of arrogance;
3. Pray in private;
4. Your Father(tm) knows what you need, long before you ask Him(tm).
It's rather pathetic that an Atheist has to spell this out to the Flock(tm).

As usual, you stupid fuckers missed the point....
I was addressing the prayers that you dipshits keep writing and/or posting,
or did *that simple fact go right over you?
It's one thing to spread the Gospels, but another thing entirely to
pontificate with a smarmy prayer. Buy a clue, *****.
And here's another clue while I'm up: I overcame the brainwashing of
religious fundamentalism long ago. You ignorant dolts act as though anyone
that doesn't believe in your tripe must certainly have never heard it
before.
When we tell you we *have, you respond that we haven't heard *you pander it.
When that doesn't work, the m.o. of the typical new-found-fundy is to throw
out one of the following ***** stories, speaking as though you were the
first dumbass to ever utter the words:
1.) Watchmaker; 2.) Pascal's Wager; 3.) Ontological/Teleological argument
4.) "Will to Believe" arguments; 5.) ID ***** 6.) 747 built in a junkyard
during a windstorm....etc, ad nauseum.
Your prosethelyzing falls on deaf ears, and merely confirms that every
impressionable 15-year-old dumbass with twenty minutes of Sunday School
suddenly feels qualified to convert the masses. You're oblivious to the fact
that snot-nosed kid has nothing profound to say to adults that have already
pondered these things for years. In other words, your 'arguments' are only
impressive to an idiot like you.
Your blood-cult means less than ***** to me, and idiots like you are but
sheep to the slaughter of mediocrity. You will be among the first that I mow
down in my quests.

If you hold the opinion that this is a prayer of hate Ray, I have to assume
that you are agreeable to everything he prayed against. Why do you like the
exploitation of the poor? Why are you so pro-welfare? Why do you like
shooting abortionists? What do you have against discipline for children?

I know what's commonly said avbout assumptions, however I don't think you'd
say that about the assumption about the theory of evolution. Besides, this
assumption has more evidence supporting it. I mean you just said that
everything in that was a prayer of hate. Not to mention you didn't deny it.

This is why they should put up 25 foot high fences around the entire
state of Kansas, and solve the nation's prison overcrowding woes, once
and for all. The last good thing to come out of Kansas was Dorothy
Gale.

Maybe we should consider putting up a 25 foot high fence around you. It
might stop your idiotic posts.
