The Irony...Only Prayer Can Fix What Is Wrong


Don't blame the following on politics.  By the way, does it make you feel any better when an IRS agent says, "Please, please, please"?

While applying with the Internal Revenue Service for tax exempt status in 2009, an Iowa-based anti-abortion group was asked to provide information about its members' prayer meetings.
                                                
On June 22, 2009, the Coalition of Life of Iowa (a pro-life conservation group) received a letter from the IRS office in Cincinnati, Ohio that oversees tax exemptions requesting details about how often members pray and whether their prayers are "considered educational."  The letter also requested the group to "please explain how all of your activities, including prayer meetings, are considered educational.  Please explain in detail the activities at these prayer meetings.  Also, please provide the percentage of time your organization spends on prayer groups as compared with other activities of the organization." 

Blame this on a country that has lost its moral compass (actually, we didn't lose it, we threw it away on purpose).  The firing of a few IRS employees will not fix what is wrong with America.  Sending a few IRS employees to prison will not fix what is wrong with America.  Impeaching the President of the United States will not fix what is wrong with America.

The irony is, only prayer will fix what is wrong with America.
