Pat McCrory Tries To Have It Both Ways On Political Prayer Rally Submitted by Peter Montgomery on Tuesday, 9/1/2015 4:04 pm
North Carolina’s Pat McCrory is the fourth Republican governor to agree to host a “Response” prayer rally organized by Christian-nation extremist David Lane and other dominionist activists. Rick Perry used a “Response” rally to launch his doomed 2012 presidential bid; since then Louisiana’s Bobby Jindal and South Carolina’s Nikki Haley have hosted rallies in their states. As we have repeatedly explained, there are serious problems with governors lending their name and the power of their office to events that are built on the premise that the only answer to the nation’s problems is for the country to “return” to Jesus.
They are exclusionary events that suggest only Christians — more specifically, Christians who share the Religious Right’s views — can be part of solving the nation’s problems. And, while pretending to be nonpolitical, they use politicians to give credibility to their anti-gay, anti-choice, America-as-Christian-nation agenda. They turn politics into spiritual warfare and political opponents into enemies of God. - See more at: Pat McCrory Tries To Have It Both Ways On Political Prayer Rally
Who still thinks that this is all made up and imagined? This is a serious threat to our secular government. These people are bat shit crazy! Anyone who claims otherwise is either brain dead or is knowingly trying to lull the nation into complacency .
