WHEW! THAT WAS CLOSE!

Last night's News About Judge Rehnquist Scares This Assumed Heathen

Imagine my concern when I heard the news last night that Supreme Court Justice William Rehnquist was once again rushed to the hospital after I had only hours before heard on the radio that Pat Robertson had asked his 'flock' to pray for the demise of members of the Court.

Robertson, a pillar of the Republican Party and influential leader of the Republican Christian hypocrtical base misfired though and Judge Rehnquist was reported to have only another 'fever' related to his treatment for thyroid cancer.

It was enough of a scare though that I would like to take this moment to share with you a prayer for brother Pat and his flock of sheep.


Sister Betty Bowers;

Call us timid, O Lord, but it makes us rather nervous when a man who just went through a bout of prostrate cancer, thinks is wise to ask his Creator to start killing people with cancer. We are concerned that you might respond to Brother Pat's imprecatory prayers in that ironic way of Yours and, well, kill him, too.

AMEN.
