Seeking a More Cooperative Spirit

I don't think I need to pre- comment on this article too much.  Any of our longtime readers will certainly pick up on the New Age attempt to summon some type of better spirit....to help the capital city of Pennsylvania out of a rough financial patch.

HARRISBURG — To help Harrisburg out of its financial crisis, area Christian, Jewish and Muslim leaders have called for three days of fasting and praying for a more cooperative spirit among Harrisburg government leaders, the business community and residents.

The Rev. Herb Stoner, pastor of adult training at Christ Community Church of Camp Hill, said the answers to problems in Harrisburg and the region won’t be found in the wisdom or ability of humans.

 “Therefore, united, we turn our hearts to God, knowing that he is good, and that his plans for the capitol region will give us a bright future and a glorious hope,” Stoner said.

An ecumenical service ending the fast will be at 4 p.m. Friday in Goodwin Memorial Baptist Church, 2447 Green St.

Come on now!!....tell me you don't love the ecumenical service ending the fast!!....you know they are gonna sing Kum Ba Yah and hold hands while they softly sway back and forth!!....you just KNOW IT!!

And you have to love Rev. Herb Stoner!...he is confident that God (whomever your god is) will give Harrisburg a bright future and glorious hope!...regardless of whatever their previous sins of ommission and commission have been.

Question for Rev. Stoner please?....how come you didn't invite the Buddhists, Hindus, Satanists, Darwinists and atheists to your prayer and fast??  Don't you need all the gods you can muster?  Or did you purposely try to keep this prayer and fast confined to the religions that acknowledge Abraham as an actual human being?

Holy inter-faith ignorance!!  We are certainly a lost generation. 

My people perish for lack of knowledge.
