A Religious War In Davenport?


11 Oct 2008 04:46 pm
Here's the full transcript and audio from pastor Arnold Conrad's invocation before Sen. McCain's speech in Davenport this morning. This pastor sees the election as a religious war. Either that, or Bill Maher paid him to promote Religulous.

"I also would also pray, Lord, that your reputation is involved in all that happens between now and November, because there are millions of people around this world praying to their god--whether it's Hindu, Buddha, Allah--that his opponent wins, for a variety of reasons. And Lord, I pray that you will guard your own reputation, because they're going to think that their God is bigger than you, if that happens. So I pray that you will step forward and honor your own name with all that happens between now and election day."

4. This guy needs to go take a course in comparative religions
Buddha is not a god! That is all.

3.  A pastor asking God to "step forward and honor your own name"? I've been a devout Christian
my entire life and never heard such an arrogant & ridiculous prayer. :eyes:
