Quote from nutmeg:
Republican Lawmakers Offer Disaster Victims Prayers, But Not Federal Aid
Money trumps God.
Stop all this nonsense of praying, here's some money. Feel better?
Of course this brings me to my motto:
If money can solve your problem you don't have a problem.
On the flip side, if you haven't the money, spare me, go pray for some.
Quote from Free Thinker:
you just need to know how to pray.
Emo Philips: When I was a kid I used to pray every night for a new bicycle. Then I realised that the Lord doesn't work that way so I stole one and asked Him to forgive me.

The way to deal with superstition is not to be polite to it, but to tackle it with all arms, and so rout it, cripple it, and make it forever infamous and ridiculous. Henry Louis Mencken
besides it amuses me.
now a question for you. do you find it ridiculous that they are praying for fair weather in arkansas and praying for rain in texas?
" It is only appropriate that Congress and the American people come together in prayer for the victims of the disasters and their families, and for the fair weather conditions that these regions desperately need."
"With Texas in the throes of a terrible drought and wildfires raging across the state, Gov. Rick Perry designated April 22 to April 24 (the Easter weekend) as official days of prayer for rain."
