While most people have been engrossed in political news, or so turned off by it that they’re avoiding the TV, something important has happened that has been given virtually no notice by the media, liberal or otherwise.
The IRS is trampling on our religious freedoms. It said recently that we couldn’t pray for our president to have four more years in office.
This issue is not one of politics. No one has the right to tell us what we can pray for. This is not about tax exempt status; this is about our fundamental rights of religious expression as guaranteed by the First Amendment!
How dare they tell us how we can pray! The Bible clearly instructs us to pray for our leaders.
Whether it is right to obey man or God, you decide.
