A Southern Baptist minister has called upon God to smite a couple of guys who work for an organization that sicced the Internal Revenue Service on him. That is pretty heavy going, even for someone who has ratted you out to the IRS.

The Rev. Wiley Drake of Buena Park. Calif., a Baptist pastor and announced candidate for the presidency of the Southern Baptist Convention, has called for Christians to direct “imprecatory prayer” against two officials of Americans United for Separation of Church and State, which had called for an IRS investigation of Rev. Drake’s political activities.

“When he be judged,” thunders Drake’s choice, the 109th Psalm, “let him be condemned and let his prayers become sin. Let his days be few; and let another take his office. Let his children be fatherless, and his wife be a widow. Let his children be vagabonds, and beg; let them seek their bread also out of their desolate places. Let the extortioner catch all that he hath; and let the strangers spoil his labours. Let there be none to extend mercy unto him; neither let there be any to favor his fatherless children.”

One more laughable religious looney.
