But again, I criticize the insincerity; the disingenuousness. That they likely use a call to prayer to gain popularity with people of faith than actually being genuine in their own faith.
Then criticize them for being disingenuous, not the prayer itself.
My dad always said he doesn’t like people putting a cross or an ichthus on their business cards or marketing materials, because it is not clear that they aren’t just using it disingenuously to drum up sales.
But what the ones that aren’t doing it to drum up sales?
We don’t know which is which. That is the problem. Let us do the praying, while they do the legislating. They shouldn’t call us to pray, because it is not clear they mean it.
