This Is More Like It

I'm glad someone finally had the guts to do this. Lots of people talk a good game about how religious they are and how important prayer is to them, but how many politicians are actually willing to call for prayer to end a famine? Once upon a time it wasn't so rare, now they are like hens' teeth.

Georgia Plans Service to Pray for Rain

What to do when the rain won't come? If you're Georgia Gov. Sonny Perdue, you pray.

The governor will host a prayer service next week to ask for relief from the drought gripping the Southeast.

"The only solution is rain, and the only place we get that is from a higher power," Perdue spokesman Bert Brantley said on Wednesday.

Perdue's office has sent out invitations to leaders from several faiths for the service, set for Tuesday

Good job, Governor Perdue. I'll be joining my prayers with yours.
