A Pastor with Guts.

A Pastor with GUTS!

Thought you might enjoy this interesting 
prayer given in Kansas at 
the opening session of their Senate. It seems   
prayer still upsets some 
people.. 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 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 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 
por nography 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 phone calls with only 47 of those calls 
responding negatively. The church is now receiving 
international requests for copies of this prayer 
from India , Africa and Korea .

The pastor has not guts.  All he has is bullshit and people rightly walked out on him.  They should have strung him up.

goober and franco do seem to support the homophobes and misogynist of Islam with great zeal.
 
The Rev. was exercising his right to free speech.

and yet he probably supports the lying invasion of iraq, torturing prisoners and cutting taxes for the rich while millions of seniors have to choose between paying their electric bill or their drug bill.  but, damn it, cuss words being spoken is just too much to take,   what a fucking dumbass.
