Did you notice the Irony? (15) Praying for Iraq

Posted on 2014-06-16 by Andreas Moser

I wonder if religious people notice the irony of praying for help against other religious people.

What is God supposed to do when he/she/it receives prayers from the Islamic fundamentalists who ask him/her/it to help conquer Iraq as well as from Christians or other faithful who ask him/her/it to stop the Islamist fundamentalists?

After all, it’s the same God, both sides would claim.

Tough dilemma for God, for sure, but even if the God of Islam and Christianity is the same, they have different prophets and somewhat different rules, so they can’t both be right. Whichever is more right will get God’s vote, presumably, and their enemies will be smitten.
