Some of you may be aware of stories in the Bible that center around God’s people turning away from Him and worshipping idols instead. One of the more famous idols is that of a Golden Calf (read here for the story).
I know I’ve been hard on “Christians” (I use the quotes because that’s sort of how I’ve been phrasing it) here lately and I don’t want to pile on. I am going to be more positive soon, I swear. But I came across this and almost couldn’t believe it.
Apparently last week a bunch of Christians got together to pray at the big gold bull on Wall Street to ask God to save our economy. There are so many things jacked up about this I won’t bother to delineate them. I’d think this was some kind of big joke mocking Christians but sadly it seems true.
They even brought a freaking shofar, man. Argh.
Go check out the pics, a video, and the perspective of someone who is not a Christian here. Be warned, there is some profanity there, if that offends you. But if you’re looking to be offended I think there are some better candidates in that link.

were they praying to the bull or to god?
To God at the Bull, while touching the bull. That's why I said pray "at" the bull rather than "to" the bull. The ridiculous-ness still stands, IMO.
