Let Us Feckin Pray

During a recent four-day, religious live TV event in America, the Pastor Jesse Duplantis made the bizarre claim that Jesus has not yet made a reappearance  because people weren’t donating enough.
Who knew, the son of God was so money motivated but as the news isn't reporting that Jesus put in an appearance i am guessing the Pastor's bank balance didn't swell enough so he stayed in his Heavenly home although i am sure there was some gullible rednecks called Jim Bob or Bobby Jo saying 'Y'all put down 'em gun's youngun's and fetch momma her wallet, we got us some prayin' to do'.
Now i have no problem with people having faith, i don't share it and think they are either brainwashed by parents or just haven't asked enough questions because i'm not sure what they have seen, read, watched or been told different to me for them to say 'Hallelujah, i'll believe that' but that's there look out, as i always say you don't ram your beliefs down my throat and i won't ram my mountains of evidence why religion is a crock down yours.
What bought this up was the report that since lock-down, more young people are praying which is great for them if it helps them in some way with where we are, then fill your boots, no harm to anyone.
The prayer frenzy is being driven by the Internet with many faiths setting up online prayer meetings as the places of worship were locked down, the Church of England alone said that 6,000 people phoned a prayer hotline in its first 48 hours of operation and the majority were young adults aged between 18 and 34.
The most frequent subjects of prayers were for the safety of family (53%), friends (34%), NHS Staff (28%) and themselves (28%) but 24% were also thanking God for something, probably not giving us a killer virus because despite creating everything, he only gets the thanks for all things bright and beautiful apparently.
They also found that the most popular religious figure on TV was The Vicar of Dibley's Rev Geraldine Granger then Sister Evangelina, played by Pam Ferris from Call the Midwife and Father Ted Crilly from Father Ted taking third place although personally if Father Jack was presenting Songs of Praise, i'd watch it.
