Prayer for money as history repeats itself

Did you know that October 29 was "Pray for the economy day"? Yeah I missed it as well, but a few Americans didn't. They went to wall street and prayed for the stock market and they chose their site well....

"We are going to intercede at the site of the statue of the bull on Wall Street"

They were praying for more money in front of a large golden bull. This is just too incredible to take seriously... Had they not read the bible? There is like a whole chapter about this and another one later to remind them about it.

Read about it here and some more photos here.
