At Least It Wasn't Lamb's Blood

CBN's David Brody reports on a perculiar, yet common, "Christian ritual" that was conducted on Capital Hill:

The Christian group "Faith and Action in the Nation's Capitol" has made its way to Capitol Hill and Supreme Court Nominee Sonia Sotomayor might be interested in what they did. They blessed the doors of Senate Hart Building Room 216 with prayer and oil because they believe this will be the room most likely used for her confirmation hearing which begins July 13th.




I'll pass on the obvious discussions of the seperation of Church and State on this. What I find more interesting is that this man was allowed to take a vile full of "oil" into the Senate Hart Building and then smear it on the doors to Rm 216.

Was this authorized by security? I'd like to see someone take insences sticks in and light them and pray to some Buddist or Hindu god that the confirmation brings out the truth. Although that "what if" situation is better left to those on the Right side of the discussion, it's relevant to point out that this "blessing" can be seen as a security issue.

That aside, what happens when "Faith and Action in the Nation's Capital" President, Rev. Rob Schenck, sees that his "prayer" that he sanctioned didn't turn out the way he had hoped?

It's never been considered by any devout worshiper, whatever denomination they belong to, that pray doesn't work all the time - they honestly believe that it does. They tend to spin more on what God does and doesn't answer than Bill O'Reilly does when discussing conservatives actions, thoughts, and deeds. If this "prayer" isn't answered in the fashion that they desire, look for Rev. Schenck to say something along the lines that God is testing their faith, that he has a plan for Sotomayor, or that perhaps people simply didn't pray hard enough.
