'In the name of Jesus, I command you to get out of my store...'
This is weird. :crazy:

The store owner is lucky she didn't get shot.

18. That is what I thought when I read the article.
And I grew up in a God fearing, miracles can happen household. Funny thing is that my minister father probably would have thought the same thing. ;)

4. Did she recite Samuel L Jacksons prayer from Pulp Fiction?
The one he uses before he kills someone?

Or was it the Boondock Saints prayer?

Either one puts the fear of God into evil doers!

5. Well, more power to her if it worked.
:rofl:

Next time I'm robbed, I'm going to invoke Cthulhu, and see what happens.

6. I wouldn't.
Being one who invoked him means you get eaten second.

7. If it worked, it worked.
But in the future, I saw invoking the name of St. Mossberg in case Jesus has his cell turned off.

10. Or St. Hubbins, if you're a shoe store owner.
Him being the patron saint of quality footwear and all. :P

11. Perhaps she had been watching old Joan of Arc movies: if I recall correctly, there
is some inspiring footage (perhaps based on her April 1429 letter) of eighteen year old Joanie advising the commander of the English seige at Orléans and his troops to bugger off right fast with his troops if they didn't all want to be divinely smote

13. This story will get around and the next clerk that tries that
will probably get blown away.
The robber was probably scared and when the clerk didn't play her part the way the robber expected he freaked.

14. 'Extravagant Necessities' sounds like a place Jebus would shop.
glitter for the sandals and some nice gold trim for his robe.

15. The store-owner is a liar.
Remember the girl at Columbine who was executed for believing in God? Didn't happen either.

16. Thanks for the reminder
Or the woman who was "kidnapped" by the escaped meth addict? And she "saved" herself by "witnessing" to the guy - only none of that happened.
