The Sarah Palin stuff is annoying but this one should grant an exception.
Raw Story is reporting that Republican veep nominee Sarah Palin credits her electoral success on a preacher who claims he can successfully hunt down witches. Raw Story’s John Byrne writes the following.
“In 1988, Pastor Muthee and his wife traveled to Kenya after being “called by God.” Setting up shop in the basement of a grocery store, they claim to have brought 200 people “to God” and away from the town’s “spiritual oppression.”
The source of the oppression? Witchcraft, Muthee says. When researching the community, they found that a woman named “Mama Jane” ran a divination clinic that drew a large following in the town.
“We prayed, we fasted, the Lord showed us a spirit of witchcraft resting over the place,” Pastor Muthee said.
Muthee made his experiences into a video called Transformations, which documents his “spiritual warfare” against demons and occult practices. Spiritual warfare is more common in Latin America and Africa, where the concept of day-to-day demons has a stronger hold. The video’s trailer is available here.
Here’s the video of Palin crediting the pastor.
So much more. Read the rest of the story here.
just another reason why stupid rednecks have no business in running the country, let alone the school board. (and before anyone gets their knickers in a bunch, by ‘redneck’, I don’t mean average blue collar people – I mean those who glorify stupidity and wear it like a badge of honor.. like the kind of person that would name their kid after a gun part).
Makes me think of Gov.Bobby Jindal who was rumored to be on McCain’s VP shortlist.Jindal had participated in an exorcism that cast out supernatural spirits .
Man….. what were they looking for in a Veep?
I thought GMD was above this kind of useless sh!t.
Just a few years ago. A friend’s refrigerator had become possessed by evil spirits – the damned thing was making noises that no refrigerator should ever make. I think that’s just what happens when you leave live culture yogurt in there for too long – your acidopholus goes bad, practically inviting the Devil into your kitchen.
Anyhoo, my friend Scott recited the Holy Catholic rite of exorcism, with special adaptations for home appliances. We, meaning me and several others, recited the congregants replies.
The demon was cast out, and we all enjoyed a nice dinner. Now, what could be wrong with that?
