Be Careful How You Pray

You’ve heard of ‘prayer warriors’, now how about ‘prayer worriers’?

A couple of praying pastors have worried authorities enought to turn a plane around according to this article.

Two preachers grounded a flight leaving Buffalo, New York, after they frightened passengers by declaring the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks were a good reason to pray, officials said on Thursday.

One preacher told fellow passengers as the Continental Airlines plane taxied down the runway, “Your last breath on earth is the first one in heaven as long as you are born again and have Jesus in your heart,” according to FBI spokesman Paul Moskal.

I don’t know that they did themselves or their cause any favours.
