Day of Prayer for Marriage

Washington, D.C. — Concerned Women for America (CWA) is calling for a Day of Prayer and Fasting to ask God’s intervention to protect marriage. Tuesday, June 17, is the first full day that California will begin allowing same-sex “marriages,” opening the floodgates of legal chaos to further undermine marriage nationwide. Unlike Massachusetts, which allows only state residents to obtain same-sex “marriage” licenses, California’s sweeping decision can be transported nationwide by homosexual couples demanding that other states recognize their California “marriage.” Already, New York Governor David Paterson (D) has ordered all New York state agencies to recognize same-sex “marriages” performed in other states or countries in which it is considered legal.


On June 2, the California Marriage Amendment Act was certified and will be on the November ballot in California. Over 1.1 million California residents signed a petition for a referendum to define marriage as between one man and one woman, a clear example of what “the people” want.


Phyllis Nemeth, State Director for CWA of California, said, “Prayer is the key to this battle. We need to see hearts changed by God at the same time that we’re trying to change minds. That’s why I’m inviting my fellow Californians especially to join CWA in prayer and fasting for our state and our nation.”


CWA President Wendy Wright said, “CWA was founded on ‘prayer and action.’ The decision by the California court on same-sex ‘marriage’ is an affront to God and His plan for marriage and family. It will cause long-term problems and risks for families, churches, and agencies that work with children, and many others — leading to more lawsuits and damaged lives. While many will be working to protect the true definition and meaning of marriage, our first action must be to pray for God to intervene. Please join us in prayer and fasting on June 17.”

what a bunch of asshats.x(

1. I recommend fasting for 90 days, Phyllis. It will do you good.

[roody]

5. Try 30., Phyl. It may open your mind and heart.

[Kutjara]

2. Er, don't they understand that, if "God" was going to intervene...

...(S)He would have already done so. That's the thing about being omniscient and omnipotent: you kind of have your finger on the pulse of what's going on.

Or are the Constipated Women of America suggesting that the Supreme Being isn't really on the ball and so needs to be prodded into action?

I hope these clowns have a nice fast. In fact, I hope they enjoy it so much they continue fasting until they're extinct.

14. People like that don't really have much faith...that their deity will smite the evil ones

so they take up the slack, as it were, and endeavor to punish them for daring to seek happiness. Meanwhile demonstrating the most monstrous hypocritical arrogance by labelling their victims "unnatural."

[Tesha]

20. Maybe God *IS* Intevening. How's the Republican heartland doing this year?

Kind'a wet, I hear!

By comparison, how was the weather in Baghdad by the Bay
yesterday?

3. Who put these freaks' concept of GOD in charge?

"... legal chaos to further undermine marriage nationwide."

With no precedent, or example from ANYWHERE in the world that chaos will ensue, it's laughable.


".. an affront to God and His plan ..."

Presumptuous bunch, I'll give them that.

Yeh, there are millions of hungry people in the world, but God cares if these freaks skip a couple of meals. :eyes:

4. let them fast all the way to November

they'll be too weak to go vote

[LordJFT]

6. Keep on praying Phyllis

Don't bother telling the CWA to show up and vote or anything. Just keep on praying and let God take care of it all.

[Beartracks]

7. Wow, I didn't know...

<"... __fill in the blank__ is an affront to God and His plan..."

Wow, I didn't know his plan was available! Can I Google it, or find it at Barnes & Noble?

(Note: I am a religious person, but this holier-than-thou stuff really annoys me. ):banghead:

Oh -- And here's a shirt message for holy rollers: God works in mysterious ways

[flvegan]

8. You know, CWA and the like can just fucking cram their idea of God.

Haters.

[msongs]

9. in the old days they gassed jews but that went out of style thank koresh nt

[newmajority]

10. God's response to the so called "Concerned" women

"WORRY ABOUT THINE OWN FAMILIES, AND JUDGE NOT, LEST YE BE JUDGED, ME DAMN IT!!!" :nuke:

[knitter4democracy]

11. Sure, I'll pray. I'll pray that the light of love hits them smack in the face.

That crap reminds me more of the Pharisees and their myriad laws that no one could follow than it does the love of Christ. I'll be praying not to lose my temper too much if any of them try talking with me about it, too.

[Occam Bandage]

12. Indeed. May love, commitment, and joy be spread to all men and women of Earth,

regardless of how God shaped their love.

[Oeditpus Rex]

13. God replies:

[ccharles000]

16. lol

[muntrv]

15. Please fast longer than a day. I don't want to see these assclowns again.

[Lex]

17. LOL. Extend that fast!

[readmoreoften]

18. I wish them all a lifetime of fasting.

[mcctatas]

19. “Prayer is the key to this battle. We need to see hearts

changed by God"

Well hell, we'll just have to enter into an old-school battle royal of praying! If I knew it was that easy to defeat wrong-headed bible thumping bigots, I would have busted out the rosary. For all non-Catholcics and other assorted godless heathens ( ;) ), here's how ya do it:

Make the Sign of the Cross and say the "Apostles' Creed."
Say the "Our Father."
Say three "Hail Marys."
Say the "Glory be to the Father."
Announce the First Mystery; then say the "Our Father."
Say ten "Hail Marys," while meditating on the Mystery.
Say the "Glory be to the Father."
Announce the Second Mystery; then say the "Our Father." Repeat 6 and 7 and continue with Third, Fourth and Fifth Mysteries in the same manner.

21. The Concerned Women of America can shove that hateful bullshit up their big, fat asses.

Fuck them and fuck that bigoted crap. Same old motherfucking hate and intolerance.
