Waiting.........

"Mother Earth, we gather today in your redeeming and glorious
presence, to invoke your eternal guidance in the universe, the
original Creator of all things.
May the efforts of this council blend the righteousness of Allah
with the all-knowing wisdom of Satan. May Zeus, the great God of
justice, grant us strength tonight. Jesus might forgive our
shortcomings while Buddha enlightens us through His divine
affection. We praise you, Krishna, for the sanguine sacrifice
that freed us all. After all, if Almighty Thor is with us, who
can ever be against us?
And finally, for the bounty of logic, reason, and science, we
simply thank the atheists, agnostics, Humanists, who now account
for 1 in 5 Americans, and [are] growing rapidly. In closing, let
us, above all, love one another, not to obtain mythical rewards
for ourselves now, hereafter, or based on superstitious threats
of eternal damnation, but rather, embrace secular-based
principles of morality — and do good for goodness’ sake.
And so we pray.
So what?"
What would your re-action be if this invocation were said in
your presence?

At the first mentioning of praising satan I would get up and
walk out.

My reaction would be "so what?". If this guy believes this stuff
I say so what...it doesn't mean I have to believe it. Let him
have his say and then get on with the meeting.

You win the 1st amendment award, since this is a government
meeting they really don't have a choice, IMHO.
