Theocratic dimwits ATTACK!

Christian Right Activists Disrupt Hindu Chaplain In The Senate

Today was a historic first for religion in America’s civic life: For the very first time, a Hindu delivered the morning invocation in the Senate chamber – only to find the ceremony disrupted by three Christian right activists.

The three protesters, who all belong to the Christian Right anti-abortion group Operation Save America, and who apparently traveled to Washington all the way from North Carolina, interrupted by loudly asking for God’s forgiveness for allowing the false prayer of a Hindu in the Senate chamber.

“Lord Jesus, forgive us father for allowing a prayer of the wicked, which is an abomination in your sight,” the first protester began.

“This is an abomination,” he continued. “We shall have no other gods before You.”

Senator Bob Casey (D-PA), serving as the presiding officer for the morning, immediately ordered them taken away – though they continued to yell at the Hindu cleric as they were headed out the door, shouting out phrases such as, “No Lord but Jesus Christ!” and “There’s only one true God!”</em>

Really, go read the article. We can’t make this stuff up. Let’s get these warriors on the next plane to a place more hospitable to their fervent, extremist “faith”. Like Iran.
