Offensive Religious Fear

Wow. Wow. Wow.

Here is the highlight:

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 would 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

First, Hindu is not a God. Second, this man should be utterly embarrassed and ashamed that he would pray such a thing.

Let say this very directly to "Rev." Conrad. There are many people who believe in the same God that you believe in that want "his opponent" to win. And using fear to align a Presidential candidate with other religions is incredibly offensive, and all Christians should be embarrassed, regardless of political leanings, that such a thing would be done by a "Reverend."

Unbelievable.
