Playing the Religion Card

Point of clarification for those people moaning at our President, who actually did them a favor (whether intentionally or not) by illustrating what the Bible says about prayer, as the United States marks another National Day of Prayer.

Of course, prayers in public places are not sinful, as Jesus and the Apostles prayed in public gatherings. However, there is a prescribed way--and it is in private, as you can read (in various translations) by clicking on the link above.

Just as Paul taught that being single is better than being married, it is still not a sin to be married (at least not the first time).

I can't stop myself from getting discouraged and disgusted when alleged leaders of churches rip out the wonderful love and unspeakable joy of God's word in order to elevate themselves in the eyes of the public at large. I also refuse to stop myself from calling them out, from this moment forward.
