I am struggling with the emotions and thoughts inside of me. I prayed and prayed and prayed--even fasted that God would intervene. Now I am struggling with how to react. I don't want to be mad at God. I just feel a little betrayed. I just don't know what to do. I hate feeling this way. I am surrounded by people who hate righteousness. I feel like God didn't answer my prayer, but I can't blame Him. I don't want to blame Him. (Please forgive me, Lord. ) I truly feel so badly for John McCain and Sarah Palin--they were treated so badly. I just want to cry. They are good people, and because people love evil so much more than good, they cheat, lie, deceive, and do all sorts of evil to elect one of their own. I have alot of praying to do, but I am a little faith-shaken right now. I mean...who or what do you believe now? I guess I can't say that God didn't answer my prayer, He just said, NO. And how do you answer those gloaters who won? Have you seen the video of all the Obama supporters outside the White House?
Tomorrow if anyone says anything to me about it, I will just tell them that WIDE is the way that leads to destruction, and many enter in that way.

Cameltoe, you must be one of those conservatives who like democracy, but only when it produces the results that you want.
Maybe this will encourage all these fundie nutjobs to move... They could all go to Alaska! You can be as crazy as you want in Alaska... apparently...
Also, if god doesn't care about the millions of people dieing from starvation and preventable disease every single year, why would he give a fuck who the president is. Face it, god is either lazy, non-existent, or a fucking jerk.
It wasn't Obama's crowd that jeered and shouted things when his opponent was mentioned in their candidate's speech. Obama and his supporters were highly respectful and complimentary of McCain during Obama'a victory speech. McCain, on the other hand, had to stop and ask his crowd to ease off a number of times, when they booed at the mention of Obama during his concession speech.
" (...) and because people love evil so much more than good, they cheat, lie, deceive, and do all sorts of evil to elect one of their own."
Which people are you talking about?
No, I will not let you avoid the question, and I will not go away. Quit counting the ceiling tiles in an effort to avoid my gaze, and answer me when I ask you once again: which people are you talking about? Hmmmm??
"because people love evil so much more than good, they cheat, lie, deceive, and do all sorts of evil to elect one of their own. "
You mean, like every single one of McCain's campaign ads ?
I guess I can't say that God didn't answer my prayer, He just said, NO. "
Um, no, you self-delusional git. Your prayer wasn't answered, nor were the millions upon millions of others. Wanna know why? It's 'cause God does not exist .
Now, how about joining the rest of us here in reality? It's really a nice place.
Uh, point of order here, but Obama wasn't the one inciting people to make death threats towards his opponents at rallies.
Put down the Koolaid, please.
Maybe, from a religious point of view, God let Obama win because he knows that all the stuff you've been saying about him is not true? Have you ever thought that God is giving you a slice of humble pie to stop acting like you are better than the rest of the world?
"I truly feel so badly for John McCain and Sarah Palin--they were treated so badly."
Bullshit. Waah. They lost a fucking election. Know how much it takes to even have a serious shot at that position? And what did Obama get hit with?
"He's the antichrist."
Need I fucking go on, you hypocritical jackass?
John McCain and Palin brought whatever "bad" treatment (which I would like to see elaborated on) on themselves. They not only had a pathetic campaign, but they and their base almost exclusively relied on incredibly debased innuendo, bizarre labels, distortions, and outright lies. They deserve a special place in Hell, and yet, they lost. Life will go on, no damage was done (per se) and both can continue their careers, and make a difference without being at the helm to drive us screaming into oblivion. As for feeling betrayed by your God: maybe that's a sign that you should take a long, hard look at yourself and your beliefs, rather than blaming everyone else.
After everything that has gone on, during this campaign, and during the last 8 years, the sane Americans deserve to gloat. Because morons like yourself are finally becoming a minority.
Still praying?
After failure, more failure and repeated failure, you're still praying?
Why not just buy a lottery ticket? You've got better odds of success and all you waste is a dollar or two.
McCain and Palin weren't treated unfairly. They lost the election fair and square. Their campaign, however, was another matter entirely.
Since your godforsaken God has betrayed you, why are you being such a glutton for punishment and continuing to worship him?
The stupid makes me feel like clawing my eyes out.
McPalin got what they rightfully deserved.
Also, quit feeling guilty, quit praying and take some responsibility for yourself.
"If you don't vote for my party your going to hell!!!"
Living under a dictatorship is no fun. Why the hell would you want to when your not even sure the dictator exists?
And how do you answer those gloaters who won?
You say that you're very sorry and in the next election, you will focus on the campaign issues and not get dragged into mudslinging.
Then you can kiss my ring.
"I prayed and prayed and prayed--even fasted that God would intervene"
And yet I, a Left-wing Atheist watched & waited with anticipation (till around 4 AM GMT), whilst eating Pringles & drinking Coke, for the result that we'd almost been expecting (considering the most recent pre-election coverage exit polls; even those before then): Obama & Biden being elected. Now what does that tell you? Everyone here (& most people) would say that a combination of a complete lack of religious belief, the idea (coupled with blatant 'Bush Fatigue' present in the US electorate) that the Democrats were going to win which almost bordered on stating the bleeding obvious (i.e. 'No Shit Sherlock' syndrome), snacks and scientifically collated surveys > 'Faith'. You do the maths, fundie. Oh, but it takes an education to do that.
"God didn't answer my prayer"
And what does THAT tell you? Ask yourself that question. THE question that, without the security blankie of 'Faith', there can be only one answer:
GOD DOESN'T EXIST
Troy Brooks need not apply. It requires a BRAIN to ask questions. Something he doesn't have.
@Lithp
Don't forget that when he isn't destroying democracy with voter registration fraud, he personally rips late-term babies out of pregnant women's wombs and throws them into closets to die. That's important, too.
Guess what? God DID intervene: He placed the person HE wants in the White House.
Oh, and yes, God DID answer your prayer - - he said "NO".
Well, maybe God was sending you a subtle message that can mean:
"they cheat, lie, deceive, and do all sorts of evil to elect one of their own."
Yes, the McCain/Palin ticket did that. In fact their entire campaign was that plus ridiculous fearmongering and "stay the course" of Ws disastrous administration.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
