Watching the National Prayer Breakfast.
It's really an International Prayer Breakfast, with President Obama, other presidents and prime ministers, etc.

Just as we have seen a rise in miltarism, we are seeing a rise in mixing religion, once-called the opiate of the masses, with government. It is less of a prayer breakfast and more of a church service, with politicians, including Obama, and others, giving their testimony of how Jesus Christ saved them, called them to do what they are doing, guides them, etc.

There's really no arguing with God, is there? I mean, if God is guiding your every step, it must be above criticism, no?

I just wonder how God can be guiding Obama every step of the way and also guiding Gohmert every step of the way. He does work in really mysterious ways. And we'll understand it all, bye and bye, after we die. Now, that's something to look forward to, isn't it?

1. I don't think God is guiding any of them.
If their behavior is any indication.

2. Between the hearings and the prayer breakfast, I was not having a good time.
