1. I'll be your first rec for that one

I'm tired of people offering prayers and then turning aside from doing anything because they don't want to bother their beautiful minds, or as one
person I knew put it she needed to focus on being happy, and that was after the Charleston slaughter.

2. my response

in explaining it to someone: I have 4 kids and someone breaks into my house and kills one of my kids... I definitely will not take time to pray or be sad... I will get angry, very angry and move quickly to stop my other 3 children from being harmed or killed...

this is no time for prayer or sadness or contemplation... now we must act and act quickly

10. Ruth, in Fried Green Tomatoes

I had a dream the other night. I dreamt that Buddy was gone. I ran to his crib and there he was, sleeping like an angel. And you know, I thanked God for letting me still have Buddy. And I remembered having the same reaction after Frank would beat me, thanking the Lord for giving me the strength to take it. And I remembered thanking the Lord for each day that my mother lived. Even when she was spittin' up blood and prayin' for me to kill her. I looked into my mother's eyes, pleadin' for me to help her, and all I could do was pray. While... while you were gone, and I was holding Buddy, I thought, "If that bastard, Frank Bennett, ever tries to take my child, I won't pray. I'll break his neck.

9. But they mean well!

Bullshit! Ms. Central Scrutinizer is dying from pancreatic cancer. My tea-bagger sister offers her thoughts and prayers. She can shove them up her ass. Without the ACA, we would be facing bankruptcy and homelessness, the result that the tea party wants.

51 years ago today, we said a prayer before setting out from Brown Chapel to march across the Edmund Pettus Bridge.
