Bro. Drake says, "An imprecatory prayer is very strong."
Let's see him shit in one hand, and pray in the other, and see which one smells stronger.
Had people said this same bullshit about "imprecatory prayer" and GW Bush, they would have landed in jail, or at least had a long, uncomfortable interview with the Secret Service. I actually prefer this - where I can just point and laugh - except that some Christianist nutjob with a gun will, sooner or later, take himself to be the Hand of God and act on these ravings.

"The wretched world lies now under the tyranny of foolishness; things are believed by Christians of such absurdity as no one ever could aforetime induce the heathen to believe." - Agobard of Lyons, ca. 830 AD

Re: Point?
And then there are the so called "sophisticated Christian theologians" who are far too clever to actually believe in a god...
I don't know, Jumpy. There may be a few masquerading atheists like that, but my bet is that the vast majority of upper-echelon churchmen, no matter how "smart," are also real live believers. It's hard for me to see how that would be from my present atheist perspective, but I used to buy into that belief crap in my younger days, too. And a few people, like my employer, seem to think I'm fairly smart.

"God is what loved the world into being."
