Lord help us to ignore anything that contradicts our righteous
visions
Grant
us a blind, unyielding and merciless faith that we so seek in thee
Jesus
give us time to fulfill our implanted dreams of hyper-consumption
Keep
our leaders free from the constraints of reason, logic and good sense
God
see that according to thy will we strike down the wicked infidel
fanatics
Bring
us peace as we lay waste to their sin-ridden cities and fields
Christ,
let the priests explain away natural disasters and childhood deaths
Take
away our fear and wonder and sustain us on a stale and moldy faith
Lord
help the single, teenage mother to party on and be impregnated again
Grant
us the ability to ignore how they must live - as we are driving by
Jesus
give us the strength to carry all our extra fat way over to the couch
May
we barter our reason for media babble taken with quantities of sweet
or salty snacks
God
see that we always demand bigger vehicles with more powerful engines
Bring
the rich lower taxes, import cheap goods and export middle-class jobs
Christ
let avaricious suckups and backbiting kick-downers keep masquerading
as leaders
Take
care of all those fathers who abandon their children without any
support
Lord
help the congressmen redistrict each and every voting region to their
full advantage
Grant
us the wisdom to cut the old growth timber and to drain unproductive
wetlands
Jesus
give us the petroleum for our humvees, jets and black helicopters
May
thy name be upon our lips as our swinish lifestyles overtake us at
last
God
see that we continue never to look back with any regrets or apologies
Bring
us thy thick-necked police bullies who are merely enforcing the law
Christ
may the doctor work swiftly that he does not miss his tee time
Take
back any guilt, remorse or shame we might accidentally feel
Lord
help the children to understand and accept their reduced lots in life
Grant
us new drugs that we might eat like pigs but still remain quite thin
Jesus
lend us your strength to bludgeon the infidels with thy heavy holy
cross
May
we always have a terrible bogeyman with which to frighten our people
God
see that sexual predators work in the nursing homes where we dump our
Mothers
Bring
us taxable vices for the masses and clever loopholes for the rich
Christ
let entrepreneurs in need be able to grease the proper official’s
sweaty palms
Take
away our worries and fears that we may serve thee with blind faith,
free of doubt
Lord
help the suicide bombers to detonate near many unwary civilians
Grant
the greedy African dictators more aid to siphon off to themselves and
their cronies
Jesus
give them the docility never to question our virtuous leaders
May
the multinationals come to control all commerce and chart out every
lifestyle
God
see that violent criminals perfect their heinous crafts and
addictions in our prisons
Bring
us blindness as to where our water comes from and our garbage goes
Christ
give unmarried great grand-daughters of single mothers their own
bastard children
Take
away our foolish worries over environmentally-induced diseases
