Here, in the interest of balance, is how Rev. Conrad later backpedaled:"I would also pray Lord that your reputation is involved in all that happens between now and November, because there are millions of people around this world praying to their God -- whether it's Hindu, Buddha, Allah -- that his [Sen. John McCain's] opponent wins for a variety of reasons.
"And Lord I pray that you would guard your own reputation, because they’re going to think that their God is bigger than you, if that happens. So I pray that you would step forward and honor your own name in all that happens between now and Election Day."
"My prayer had nothing to do with either candidate. My point was these people are praying that the person of their choice wins. If that happens, then they’re going to ascribe to their God that power, that their God made it happen as opposed to the God of the Bible."The invocation was outrageously arrogant; the explanation falls far short of credibility.
This is getting more absurd by the day. Sen. McCain needs to either rein it in or pack it in.
(Watch Rev. Conrad pray to his really big political god here.)
