If you're not praying for Peace........

What are you praying for?
Finally, followers of the Prince of Peace are getting on the right side. Now maybe we'll get some real traction towards ending this piece of shit war and all others for now, and forever amen!
"This war, from a Christian point of view, is morally wrong — and was from the beginning," the Rev. Jim Wallis, founder of Sojourners/Call to Renewal, one of the event's sponsors, said toward the end of the service to cheers and applause. "This war is ... an offense against God."

In his speech, the Rev. Raphael G. Warnock, senior pastor at Atlanta's Ebenezer Baptist Church, lashed out at Congress for being "too morally inept to intervene" to stop the war, but even more harshly against
President Bush.

"Mr. Bush, my Christian brother, we do need a surge in troops. We need a surge in the nonviolent army of the Lord," he said. "We need a surge in conscience and a surge in activism and a surge in truth-telling."

Hooray - at last! Let's hope more and more wake up and realize they can't call themselves Christians and wage torture and war on people. Thanks, Paul.
