Uh, guys??? Your god there? He normally smites ppl for doing shit like this...

Where's Charlie Heston when you need him?

Some Christian fanatics are concerned, quite reasonably, about the economy, and have chosen, quite absurdly, to try and correct the problem with prayer. So far, so typical, but then … well, they picked a peculiarly oblivious way to do it. They prayed before a statue of a golden bull on Wall Street.

We are going to intercede at the site of the statue of the bull on Wall Street to ask God to begin a shift from the bull and bear markets to what we feel will be the 'Lion's Market,' or God's control over the economic systems. While we do not have the full revelation of all this will entail, we do know that without intercession, economies will crumble.
Just a clue: there's this book called "the bible" that these people claim to follow, but I suspect they've never actually read it, or they might have seen Exodus 32.MORE




FAIL. Biblical FAIL!!! Just...FAIL! Dammit where a FAIL icon when you need one? Just, BIBLES, ladies and gents. They are MEANT to be READ. And understood.

Science after Sunclipse kills me ded!

I'm an atheist and even I find this unacceptably blasphemous and generally unbelievable and ironic in a way that is painful. says a lot about the state of American conservatisms and their willingness to bend every rule.

That's honestly quite astonishing. Do their Bibles lack Exodus? There should be a recall!

...it's even golden. It is in fact a golden calf. It...the irony is actually hurting by this point. Like, physically hurting.

Wow… Evangelicals praying to the golden calf.. That is precious. They’ll never be let in to the promised land now!
