40-day Christian Fast

40-day Christian Fast
Quote:Virginia's Family Foundation has drawn the ire of LGBT activists after the organization recently declared a 40-day Christian fast to protect the state's Marriage Amendment, which defines marriage as a union between one man and one woman, from federal interference.

"Only the church stands in support of God's design for marriage. Our 40 days will culminate on Oct. 5 just before the court begins its session. We don't know what the Lord will do. We do know that He is sovereign. Whatever happens, we must adopt the attitude of the three Hebrew children who refused to bow before the golden image in Babylon," it said.

Most of them will probably act as though they are fasting while they stuff their mouths in the middle of the night.

And Jesus will punish them for this by killing marriage.
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great

But it'll be a spiritual fast, heathen!
