The benediction at last night's RNC
July 20, 2016 at 12:58 pm
Pastor Mark Burn's "benediction" prayer at the end of last night's RNC shows clearly nearly everything that has gone wrong with the Republican Party in the US.
And, of course, the crowd LOVED him and screamed "Amen".
It was immediately denounced on Twitter and other social media sites by moderate Christians - - not that that will make any difference.

The whole convention, at least the parts I saw, were such an impressive display of primitivity that I'm not surprised over something like that.

God has guided Trump to 2 divorces and 3 wives ??
Did I miss some kind of humongous revelation or second coming of Jebus somehow where everything was made clear ??
Do we turn in our old bibles now for new ones now?? Should I go to Zondervan and make a scene this afternoon and get on TV ??
I'm confused, even by Mormon standards, how do we process all these sudden new and startling changes to His Word ??
The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

Do these people even realise what they're actually saying at times or do they just vomit this diatribe as the stream of consciousness hits their withering minds and spills out?
He can't actually fucking mean what he is saying.
Otherwise he is utterly insane.

That's what I generally call prayer...

That is one of the scariest things I've ever read. WTF is wrong with people?

Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.
