You Can’t Make This Stuff Up.

Commenter Alex pointed this out in “Praying For a Bailout.” I can’t decide whether this is just well-intentions gone wrong, irony, or full-blown stupidity.

You are looking at a picture of some Christians praying over the Bull outside of the New York Stock Exchange, petitioning God to save the U.S. financial scene. “Save us from financial judgment,” they prayed.

You don’t need to be a Biblical scholar to see some similarities to Exodus 32. As my brother put it, “Didn’t this happen in the Old Testament or something?” Yes brother, yes it did.

One thing’s for sure: I just found a killer sermon illustration for this week. Hands off the Bull! Ack!

  • Yikes. Wow, the similarity with Exodus 32 is uncanny. If it isn't a reflection of the twisted priorities of the American church in general, I don't know what is...
  • dude, that picture is nuts!
  • Crazy.
  • Wow. Definite similarities between the happenings of today and the OT. Maybe it's God's plan for the 'financial judgement'. We too often try to tell God what to do instead of praying with Christ - "Thy will be done."
  • Like the tag - weird Christians indeed!

    Amazing isn't it. I can hardly believe that they could find a way to make it so similar to the old testament. I pray it was just good intentions gone wrong. So bizarre. I'm surprised they didn't see it while they were doing it. Strange. So Strange.
