Sunday Morning Prayers - any suggestions?
A prayer campaign has sprung among Evangelical "christians" to save the life of Abdul Raham, the Christian convert on trial in Afghanistan. Afghanistan is one of those places we have planted democracy, like soybeans, or positive stories in the Iraqi press. (Not quite sure how one connects a "prayer" and "campaign" - is God one enormous voter in the sky about to pull a lever? Will Diebold count God's one HUGE vote correctly? )
Nevertheless, I believe in prayer. In fact, I believe in the teachings of Jesus, and wonder often why most alleged "Christians" do not.
Here is my list of things I believe worthy of a prayer campaign. Please feel free to add your suggestions.
Let's also start a prayer campaign that Bush ends all torture by Americans.
Let's also pray that Bush apologizes for the torture that already occurred.
Let's start a prayer campaign that Bush gets off his ass an does something substantive about Darfur.
Let's start a prayer campaign that God's gay children are embraced and accepted everywhere as equals..
Let's start a prayer campaign that when the next category five hurricane hits that Bush does not ignore it and go on a fundraising trip.
Let's start a prayer campaign that Bush does not attack another sovereign nation that did not attack us.
Let's start a prayer campaign that Bush begins to respect and follow the U.S. Constitution.
Let's start a prayer campaign that migrant workers everywhere are respected for the invaluable contribution of their labor.
Let's start a prayer campaign that Cheney goes to his undisclosed cave suite, stays there, and is never heard from again. With his wife.
But first let's pray Cheney apologizes, and asks God's forgiveness for the loss of the lives of many thousands of God's children in the illegal, unjust, immoral invasion of Iraq.
Let's start a prayer campaign that the so called Evangelical "christians" in this country actually read the Beatitudes, beg Jesus' forgiveness for ignoring them, and get to work on a more just society.
Let's start a prayer campaign for Abdul Rahman. A Christian afghan under threat of death for his religious beliefs.
What else?
