I’ve noticed lately how there’s absolutely no limit to what people invoke God over.

The little sect in Sweden feels they are being persecuted by the outside world because of their faith, and don’t seem to realize that someone from inside their community had to have been responsible for the murder of a pastor’s wife. So, when the police are investigating that murder, is that REALLY persecution? Not from where I’m standing - on the outside.
UPDATE: They’ve sacked the pastor whose wife was murdered, siting that a pentecostal pastor can’t commit adultery (he’s admitted to it). Hopefully they’ll start reining in some of the other weird practices as well.

I’ve also seen God invoked to take care of evil people, as pronounced by someone who has a history of false accusations. Oh brother….
