Slog - Comments on Dear God, Please Protect Us From Sarah Palin http://slog.thestranger.com/2008/09/dear_god_please_protect_us_from_sarah_pa The video of Kenyan pastor Thomas Muthee praying over Sarah Palin at the Wasilla Assembly of God church has resurfaced, and holy crap, what a video it is. Some choice excerpts: In a moment I'll be asking you to pray for Sarah... I tell you something, if all we do is get people to the church and get them saved...

Oh wait, that must just be fundamentalist Christian code for "science and rational thought".

Then, they would only likely get a mere 'warning'. (It goes on their Permanent Record.) But since they seem to love makin' these here vidyos to immortalize their soon-to-be-Raptured selves, finding two more examples ought not to be very difficult.
