Drudge Retort: Red Meat for Yellow Dogs
Saturday, February 13, 2010

Southern Baptist Pastor Wiley Drake of Buena Park, Calif., sent out an email Monday night, saying that perhaps his prayers had been answered with the death of Rep. John Murtha (D-Pa.) yesterday. "Maybe God took him out," Drake wrote. "Maybe God Answered our imprecatory prayer that we prayed every 30 days." The Congressman, a decorated former Marine who fiercely opposed the Iraq war, died at the age of 77 after complications from gallbladder surgery.

The culture of life, hard at it...

Sigh......some people just need to be shot.

If only there were a Big G, and she indeed assassinated godless pols who failed to do her bidding, there wouldn't be a Repub left on Capitol Hill and four "justices" would be lecturing Da Debbil right now. herm

Quite frankly, I and many others have been praying that the Lord would change the hearts of every pol in deecee OR take them out of the photo - we are in supplication daily to bring righteousness BACK to this nation. That said, never under any circumstances would I pray harm to another - not my will, but the Lord's be done.

Proverbs 14:34 - Righteousness exalteth a nation: but sin is a reproach to any people.

Amen.

Just like a half black man was afraid to face the entire Democrat field and then John McCain?

Oh-to be a fly one the wall when these asswipes and others like them are "taken to task" for this kind of crap.

Be specific. What are you praying that the Lord do to every politician whose heart is not changed?

God, merc for hire. He only charges 1 prayer per day.

Well Nanc, you got your prayer answered.

Think about that next time you kneel before the lord.

Did you dance a jig when you heard he died?

You fauxtians do real christians proud.

When did Southern Baptists start believing in VooDoo?

This guy has a seriously fucked up interpretation of Christianity.

Be Well.

When did they stop believing in it?

Pastor Wiley Drake's big surprise will not come when he dies and finds there is no after life. His big surprise will come when he dies and finds there is one.

Nothing gets the libs more worked up and frothing at the mouth than the standard DR Christian thread.

...the standard DR Christian thread.

Cos calling fer the death of public officials through the use of prayer is SOP fer most Christians?

You don't really understand anything about Christ or Christianity do you, FuckWit?

Be Well.

Christ was once asked by the Apostles if they could pray for fire to rain down on a particular Samaritan town for treating them rudely.

Christ rebuked that idea. It is therefore safe to say that God doesn't get pissed off nearly as easily as people. Which is a damned good thing.

I'll miss John Murtha. And, less we forget, the man was awarded a Bronze Star and two Purple Hearts in the service of his country.

The man may be dead but I doubt he's going to Hell.

"fiercely opposed the Iraq war" after he voted for it.

Wow, they can really pack in the crazies in Cali!

If libs don't believe in prayer why are they pissing in their pants and wailing like some little girls. Do they secretly believe in the power of prayer?

Nope, we just like pointing out how much the religous reich actually loves their fellow man. Praying for someone's death, afterall, iswhat the baby jeebus would do.

"...I have been praying the Lord would change the hearts of every pol OR take them out of the photo - we are in supplication daily to bring righteousness BACK to this nation...."

AND

""... That said, never under any circumstances would I pray harm to another - not my will, but the Lord's be done...#4 | Posted by nanc"

Pot, Call Hypocrite Black.

Do you really rad the shit you write?

"...Amen!...posted by Murphy"
I forgot. Morons work in pairs. Like Batteries.

Loving the deaththroes of another useless religious system!

Careful there, dumplin or we'll start praying for you!

rcade - We pray for our nation. We pray that evil doesn't triumph. It's quite simple - I never said Murtha's demise was a result of this - and not saying it wasn't. He was just on the list of the ten most corrupt people in deecee...a week ago.

I pray for the death of many. He has answered my prayers a few times but sometimes he answers too slow and gently for my tastes. When I ask him to bring death I want it to be painful and violent.

How many of us have NOT prayed for God to kill someone in particular?

I have.

But if you had my stepdad, perhaps you'd have an active prayer life like I do!

Stupid demented preacher, prayers are never answered, the only person who ever listens is your mother.

Besides, Murtha was a good man, trying to do the right thing for our troops, in spite of the endless lame Rethuglican attacks on his person which saturate the broadcast band daily.

Americans work hard and deserve better, especially our troops, senslessly caught in the middle of political wars.

"Loving the deaththroes of another useless religous system...."

Better a useless religion than a useless person, DUMPLING. Maybe someone, I imagine much like you, and because of that one of your current friends, will eventually love your deathroes?

Maybe they'd come to your funeral if a meal were provided? Something to think about.

And I prayed for my comatose Grandmother, a Christian, that she would go be with Jesus...and she died immediately when I stopped.

Sorry, nutcase, depending on the who and what, prayers get answered powerfully and immediately.

Stopped = ended my prayer

"we are in supplication daily to bring righteousness BACK to this nation."

Please tell us, when was this nation righteous???

"He was just on the list of the ten most corrupt people in deecee...a week ago."

Was he charged with any crime???
Or, was he just good at getting pork for his district???
Don't blame a man for doing what they all do but just being better at it.

Herm preaching about his abortive she-deity,
Spud telling us who does and does not understand Christ and Christianity...these precious moments brought to you by the drudge retort

#29
We are righteous from our founding documents
"We are endowed by our Creator with certain inalienable rights, among them are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness"

Where there is liberty, there is righteousness.
Can you name a freer nation, now or in history?

Not to say our shit doesn't stink...

Listen, if you want to get right down to it, you can pray for everyone to die! Eventually, your prayers will be answered! Guaranteed!

More seriously, I think hateful Christians should go back and read Christ's words in the Gospels again, followed by the book of Romans, in which it's emphasized that true Christians are now not under the law but under GRACE. So maybe stop with the hateful death-wishes? You were forgiven, by your own scriptures, so perhaps you might forgive OTHERS? Christ does speak of a servant whose master forgave him a debt, but who went and beat his fellow servants who had debts to HIM. Pop question: What did Christ say befell that servant?

One thing I'm pretty sure about this petition-thy-Lord-with-prayer business.

Einstein was right when he said, "God doesn't play dice".

Either that or their was a perpetual busy signal on the line from Las Vegas that night.

Whoever said libs don't believe in prayer?

It is only pants pissers like yourself that beleieve that.

Many many many libs are better christians (or whatever) than someone who wears their religion on the sleeve yet pray for someone to die or "be taken out".

Wile Drake just made the nutball list.

Wile,

We are dispatching the nice men with the giant butterfly net now to collect you and get you settled in your nice soft new home.

Honestly, if I said: "I asked an invisible man to kill this dude and it worked" without mentioning the name "god" they'd lock me up. Why oh why should it be any different for these nut jobs that "talk" to god and "hear" his answers? What lunacy!

Something tells me that God did hear his prayer and will deal with the "pastor" at a later time.

The fact that he publicy announces, nay, boasts of his collusion with god in the death of a human being should tell any thinking person all they need to know about organized religion.

ATTENTION NANC and anyone else who may be so inclined to "pray for our Nation."
I respectfully request to be specifically excluded from your daily or nightly parayer rituals.

Thank you in advance for honoring my request.

Brian

"The fact that he publicy announces, nay, boasts of his collusion with god in the death of a human being should tell any thinking person all they need to know about organized religion."

It certainly tells us all we need to know about Wiley.

Of course, Wiley's "prayer/perversion" had nothing to do with God, nothing to do with faith, and everything to do with scoring points with decidedly earthly powers.
The sheep in his congregation will either see him for what he is, or remain stupid out of choice.

(Oh, and you do realize of course that Nanc is now likely to pray doubly for you, just out of spite, yes?)

Talibaptist version of a Fatwa?

we are in supplication daily to bring righteousness BACK to this nation.

So long as it's your own self-serving version of righteousness, right nanc?

"Thank you in advance for honoring my request..."

Too late.

Where's the IRS when ya need 'em?? This good Christian has committed grounds for losing his status as a tax avoidance scam.

We's all got ta die a sumpin...

The Preacher lies, It was my Murtha death prayer that god listened to.

"We are righteous from our founding documents"

Kirk, documents do not create righteousness.
This Wiley guy is a perfect example of that.

"We are endowed by our Creator with certain inalienable rights, among them are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness"

These are great words, profound words, penned by a giant with noble intentions.
But they are only words, they can't magically create righteousness, or justice, or liberty.
Words of freedom and equality didn't halt the practice of slavery.
Or any of various other inequalities and iniquities.

This Wiley clown is a perversion practicing and preaching a perversion, deluding his congregation into thinking they were actually praying (preying?) for righteousness.
This is nothing close to righteousness, just politics-based hackery.

we are in supplication daily to bring righteousness BACK to this nation.

Just for clarification, when exactly was your version of righteousness prevalent in this nation?

So refreshing to hear from the magical-thinking death cultists. Watch out, y'all! Get right with jeeeebus like NancMurph or else! Feel gawd's luv!

Lol. How many hours/day do you wackaloons spend praying for the invisible man to smite your political enemies??!? What a bunch of superstitious nonsense. the socio-religious-political hustlers really have you two and your ilk underfoot; all your addled little minds can incessantly prattle on about is jesus.

Christ!

Holy; holy...for gawwwwd and country and here's a fetus and Jeebus a-gonna smite ever'body but dem goooooood christians. Especially the Muslims....ohhh boy are they gonna get it!

Yeehaw, praise da' law-uhd and pass da ammunition! ~hyuck hyuck ~

You dodged my question. You said that you prayed for politicians like Murtha to be taken out of the picture if their hearts could not be changed. So basically, you're asking God to kill, sicken or incapacitate political leaders with which you disagree. And claiming that this will help bring righteousness back to our nation.

That's some loving God you think you're talking to.

The whole thing reminds me of Harold Pinter's poem American Football.

The only difference between this preacher, his supporters, and the leadership of Iran is that these people are (thankfully) disempowered. Let's keep it that way.

"Let's keep them that way (disempowered)...."

If you'd like to do that, liberal Christians have been helping for decades.

You might spend some time acknowledging that, rather than doing whatever is in your small power to alienate them from the Democratic Party.

I'm not a democrat. But thanks, liberal Christians, for keeping the kooks disempowered.

Happy now?

Yes Zed, I think you are on the proper side of many issues, as are others of various beliefs. If I already believe that you're doing the right thing on a relevant issue, why should reinforcement by recognition of your faith be necessary?

"Why should reinforcement by recognition of your faith be necessary...."

Well, let's say you thought I was doing the right thing on a "relevant issue" but then still used the "N" bomb with me. See any potential issues?

>So basically, you're asking God to kill, sicken or incapacitate political leaders with which you disagree.

That's all you, rcade. You're such a tool.

Perhaps they'd just be voted out of office.

It's not so much that they want Murtha or Kennedy to die.. We ALL die eventually.. They just want them to die NOW so they can enjoy their absence

Not even God gets to choose when a life ends, so why should we?

Here's a free piece of advise.. If a woman you've never seen before asks you if She's God.. You say YES!

She's coming

This Ass will find John holding the door to Hell open for him.


As much as many of you on here hated Murtha, wouldn't you be just a little put-off by an email from your Pastor stating that he prayed for a fellow American's death?

I wonder how this man keeps a congregation. To hear this from someone who claims to be a man of god is alarming, to say the least.

"To hear this from someone who claims to be a man of god is alarming, to say the least."

Not to mention blasphemy, had he actually read the book he touts.

Perhaps they'd just be voted out of office.

Bullshit. We're having this discussion in reference to a political leader who left office via death and a pastor who boasted afterward that he's been praying for it to happen.

"I wonder how this man keeps a congregation. To hear this from someone who claims to be a man of god is alarming, to say the least."

The same way that the world has seen people follow these "false prophets" for centuries. Yes, you'd have to be a real lemming to sit and listen to something like that and shouting amen....same goes for sitting in Wright's congregation for decades.

Barry heard Rev Wright but.. . let me be perfectly clear.. He did not inhale

She knows...

Quite frankly, I and many others have been praying that the Lord would change the hearts of every pol in deecee OR take them out of the photo - we are in supplication daily to bring righteousness BACK to this nation.

Don't forget God would most likely strike down any politician that has allowed the murder of millions of souls via abortion

A.R.K.

another religious kook

"That is because it (Hell) doesn't exist...."

It would help if you'd put the rest of us on the same mailing list for existential facts you subscribe to. Otherwise, people might dismiss your charmingly sincere professions of faith out of hand.

Asshat of a preacher. Always the "fundies" are no fun....

He doesn't know God.
He knows the enemy.
Satan is the accuser of the brethren.
Jesus would never pray for someones death, go read the Bible
And if you believe that is what christianity is about, this servant of the enemy securing you in eternal loss, you will not repent and then perish.

Don't give up your life for a lie about God, Preachers in the majority are wolves in sheeps clopthing, because there is a lot of easy money in Religion, just like used car sales.

How do you tell if you have a corrupt preacher?
Look at the church, and the car he drives and his watch.

Jesus would never act like that.

And if you choose to believe that Jesus would act like that and the fundies are hateful then you choose to be worse than him because you did not even check it out
Therefore you are WORSE than him.

Bad character
bad heart bad everything.

If you are honest at heart you would see immediately he is a scamp.

concerning:
quit frankly I don't pray, but there is always hope for your kind to die from a horrible virus or disease

Don't worry, we won't

I read the end of the book.

CORRUPT PREACHER TEST:

Just ask him if we have to keep the ten commandments:

If he says no, then you can ask him if it is ok to kill him now, then go to his house and rape his wife and then steall all his savings from under the mnattress and covet his lexus and take it and then divorce your wafe and remarry a bimbo.

See what he says.

The corrupt preachers say you don't have to do anything, Jesus did it all, keep on drinking beer and porking women and go to church on Sunday.

Herm used "She" when talking about God, that's so cool... and correct

There is no place called hell. Souls who arent welcomed by the Great Mother go back to chaos.. it would certainly seem like "hell"..but there's no satan or great punisher handing out earthly torments..besides only the truly bad murderous types get denied another chance

As ill-advised as it is to pray for somebody's death..it's not like you caused their death.. the act is morally neutral at worst.. so we just may see this gomer in the afterlife
