DAVENPORT, Iowa (CNN) – A minister delivering the invocation at John McCain's rally in Davenport, Iowa Saturday told the crowd non-Christian religions around the world were praying for Barack Obama to win the U.S. presidential election.
"There are millions of people around this world praying to their god—whether it's Hindu, Buddha, Allah—that his opponent wins, for a variety of reasons. And Lord, I pray that you will guard your own reputation, because they're going to think that their God is bigger than you, if that happens," said Arnold Conrad, the former pastor of Grace Evangelical Free Church in Davenport.

OMG, profe! I'm pretty sure that's the church my husband's brother was minister of until a few years ago. (He would never have prayed such a "prayer." And what sort of God would listen to that crap?!)

More lunacy is right! Just when you think that it can't get any crazier.
BTW..."Hindu" is a follower of Hinduism, not a god. Buddha, the founder of Buddhism is not a god either.
