Re: A Pastor with GUTS

Hi Ev:

I had seen this awesome prayer before and decided to check it out on urbanlegends.com. Here is what the website says:

Comments: While not word-for-word accurate, this is a fair transcription of an actual prayer delivered before the Kansas House of Representatives by Central Christian Church Pastor Joe Wright on January 23, 1996. It has circulated continuously on the Internet ever since.

At least one legislator did walk during the prayer, according to the Kansas City Star. Others made speeches criticizing what the House Minority Leader, a Democrat, called "the extreme, radical views" reflected in the prayer. It was aired nationally on the radio in February 1996 by Paul Harvey.

(You wanna bet he won't be invited back?!)
