Check out this insane facebook status update....

"President Obama has decided that there will no longer be a "National Day of Prayer" held in May. He doesn't want to offend anybody. Where was his concern about offending Christians last January when he allowed the Muslims to hold a day of prayer on the capitol grounds. As a Christian American "I am offended." I...f you agree copy and paste no matter what religion you are, this country was built on Freedom!"

:eyes:

Words fail me.

I'll get REALLY creative about what we should do with treasonous teabaggers.. :grr:

she refuses to believe it.

They won't "believe" any evidence.

I expect them to characterize it as Obama's National MUSLIM Prayer Day . . .

I had a friend that posted that on their page and I didn't pay much attention, as its a work friend and I don't want to stir the pot more than I already have here. Anyways, I just posted back on their comment with a simple, "This is false" (and then referenced your Snopes link). Thanks again for the help! :)

will ignore a ruling (assuming it stands) by a federal court judge.

I don't do the Facebook.

I smack each & every one of them down.

Allowing a Muslim group to pray on capitol grounds and supporting a National Day of Prayer sound like 2 different things to me.

So this "Christian" is offended that the Muslims were allowed to pray? Was he ever denied that right? If so - he is entitled to be offended. I somehow think that is not the case.

there is no reason to be offended - these are not the same thing - even if they did occur (and I realize they did not)

There is just no logic in the claim of being offended.

can pray anytime you want...

To me, some things are just so stupid it's not even worth replying.

It has nothing to do with the truth. Never has, never will.

She didn't even try to defend it.

as if any of it mattered in the slightest.

yeah, "god" really cares about all that. if IT did, wouldn't it send lightning bolts or smite the offenders? if people want to talk to invisible friends in the sky (the way my schizophrenic relative talks to the invisible voices in his head), why do they need a "special day" "recognized" for it? or are they not that sure of themselves and what they "believe"? they need the support of the group and the "official recognition" to reassure themselves that, yes, this is "valid"? with people suffering and hungry in the world, who gives a rat's ass whether "christians" are "offended" because "there will no longer be a National Day of Prayer"?

the country was "built on freedom," yes, so who's limiting ms. whiney-pants me-of-little-faith's freedom to talk to herself?

:nopity:

They are unhinged.

who has this same crap as her status. I commented that her post is completely false and directed her to the snopes link. I'm assuming my comment will be immediately deleted! She graduated from the same university as I did (several years later!!!) and I also commented that as an alum I would have hoped she had one class while obtaining her poli-sci degree that taught her to source/verify information passed on through email/on the internet before propogating it as fact!
