God didn't answer their prayers!!!!

A bunch of people standing in the streets of Denver asking the world to pray with them so that it would rain the last night of the Democratic convention.

I guess, no I know God didn't answer. Did he even hear them?

Re: God didn't answer their prayers!!!!

I would guess to "rain on their parade" - - all the folks in the stadium would be affected by the rain, as would the stage and Obama.

It's not covered, right?

They should have started with 2 Chronicles 7:14!

I sorta picture God looking down and thinking "Really... You don't have better things to pray about? Grow up."

I was wondering when the lightning might strike down behind the podium, myself.

They said God was not pleased with Obama and if it rained it would not only ruin the moment but be a sigh that God was not pleased.
Isn't it funny they prayed for a storm to interrupt the democrats and now there is a storm that might actually mess up the republican convention?
