Forces of Retardation of Humanity Still Trying to Retard Humanity

Found this, via Sullivan. It's an excerpt from what one might generously call an "article" Kathryn Jean Lopez "wrote" for something called NCRegister.com She gives us all a desperately needed reminder of what an idiot she is, with the following [emphasis added]:

Rick Warren reminded us why all eyes were on the Capitol steps that Tuesday afternoon: “in His name.”

We’re a nation not just where you are free to believe or not to believe; we’re a nation founded for Him — so we could praise Him, so we could do His will. Warren began his prayer as a gentle reminder to those privileged with seats and every Joe sitting on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial:

“Almighty God — our Father. Everything we see, and everything we can’t see, exists because of you alone. It all comes from you. It all belongs to you. It all exists for your glory.”

After a morning of “Obama!” chants, I would have loved to hear some of the crowd — or the president-to-be — join Warren in praying the Lord’s Prayer.
