Did nobody get the irony of this? Did no one step back and say, "wait a minute: haven't I seen this somewhere before? Didn't we get in trouble the last time we did this?" And didn't somebody think it was a little odd to be praying for money? Unless you're Cindy Jacobs, I guess. I suspect her stock portfolio has tanked in a big way and her broker needs an intervention. But, you know, the site is just a tad off, what with its association with, say, golden calves, Mammon, and other gods implicated in idolatry. Isn't there a commandment about this?
According to CBN, "Cindy is calling for a Day of Prayer for the World’s Economies on Wednesday, October 29, 2008.
They are calling for prayer for the stock markets, banks, and financial
institutions of the world on the date the stock market crashed in 1929.
They are meeting at the New York Stock Exchange, the Federal Reserve
Bank, and its 12 principal branches around the US that day." Sez Ms. Jacobs:
“We are going to intercede at the site of the statue of the bull on Wall Street to ask God to begin a shift from the bull and bear markets to what we feel will be the 'Lion’s Market,' or God’s control over the economic systems,” she said. “While we do not have the full revelation of all this will entail, we do know that without intercession, economies will crumble.”
Sheesh, nobody reads the Hebrew Scriptures anymore.
