Nothing wrong with praying for your leaders. All I said in the article was that if I had 2.8 million people praying for me, it would make me confident.

Now, there are many people who find the arrival of Bush prophesized by scripture (I even talked to one person, and found examples of others, who suspect that Bush is the Beast of scripture). This, to me, is wrong, and sacriligious. Talk about arrogance--that God's ways are an open book, and that we can simply equate our leader with that which God wishes to incarnate. Arrogant.

I imagine you are of the opinion that we can't judge the entire Muslim population by the actions or opinions of the most radical or extreme believers... you know, those "religious" folks that shoot pregnant women and innocent children at point-blank range? So why are you so eager to do so with Christianity? You are choosing the opinions of a select few and making sweeping statements about the values and opinions of the rest of the Christian population.

And I was pointing out that you missed the number praying in the US by a factor of 10 to 50. Counting outside the US, much greater.
