ATLANTA, Georgia (AP) -- As Georgia descends deeper into drought, Gov. Sonny
Perdue has ordered water restrictions, launched a legal battle and asked
President Bush for help. On Tuesday, the governor called on a higher power.


Gov. Sonny Perdue has several times mentioned the need for prayer as the
crisis has worsened.

He joined lawmakers and ministers on the steps of the state Capitol to pray
for rain.

While public prayer vigils might raise eyebrows in other parts of the
nation, they are mostly shrugged off in the Bible Belt, where turning to the
heavens for help is common and sometimes even politically expedient.

"Christianity has more of a place in the culture here than in some other
region," said Ray Van Neste, a professor of Christian studies at Union
University in Jackson, Tennessee. "And it's only natural, in a way, for the
public to pray for rain."

Perdue isn't the first governor to hold a call for public prayer during the
epic drought gripping the Southeast. Alabama Gov. Bob Riley issued a
proclamation declaring a week in July as "Days of Prayer for Rain" to
"humbly ask for His blessings and to hold us steady in times of difficulty."

The loudest opposition to Perdue's move came from the Atlanta Freethought
Society, a secular group that planned to protest at the vigil.

"The governor can pray when he wants to," said Ed Buckner, who was
organizing the protest. "What he can't do is lead prayers in the name of the
people of Georgia."

Political heavyweights outside the U.S. are known to occasionally plead to
the heavens for rain. In May, Australian Prime Minister John Howard asked
churchgoers to pray for rain in hopes of snapping a drought that has
devastated crops and bankrupted farmers Down Under.

In the U.S., public expressions of faith are often discouraged as a breach
of the separation of church and state.

Thomas Jefferson, for one, resisted calls for a federal day of prayer. But
he was an exception. From George Washington, who declared "a day of prayer
and thanksgiving," to Harry Truman, who established a National Day of
Prayer, American politicians have not been shy about associating themselves
with petitions to the Almighty.

With rivers and reservoirs dropping to dangerously low levels across the
region, a prayer rally at a high school football stadium in the Georgia town
of Watkinsville drew more than 100 worshippers last week, and a gospel
concert dedicated to rain attracted hundreds more two weeks ago at an
Atlanta church.


"We need to try a different approach," said Rocky Twyman, who organized the
concert. "We need to call on God, because what we're doing isn't working. We
think that instead of all this fussing and fighting, Gov. Perdue and all
these others would come together and pray."

A Baptist, Perdue has several times mentioned the need for prayer -- along
with water conservation -- as the crisis has worsened. Over the summer, he
participated in a day of prayer for agriculture at a gathering of the
Georgia Farm Bureau

The Governor and other Religious Leaders prayed for Rain within 24 hours and
WE received Rain within that time frame as requested in their prayer when no
rain was expected, in sight or forecasted, until after the prayer. No rain
fell for over two weeks before either. That aside one question for you.

What is the difference between Christians that go over to the Atheist boards
and post unwanted Religious messages and Christian material when it's not
wanted just for the sake of doing so and YOU who do the exact thing here
only opposite in content when it's not wanted or requested? What's the
difference? You have the same freedom to be here as Christians do there
and post. The difference is that neither of you have the right to criticize
the other for doing so if you are doing the same thing.

My fellow Christians, that are out there, I ask for your Prayers that God's
Holy Spirit will deal with this unbeliever's heart and give him the chance
to know God's Salvation and Peace. As for if you respond to God's call is
up to you.
