    Is this serious or is it some kind of hoax type video put together? Did that prayer actually go down?

    lmao, oh man, that made my day. I kind of feel sorry for them, or is it embarrassment?

    Lol....I'm not surprised. It's Tennessee, they do this at pee wee football games in suburban Texas neighborhoods.

    Lol...southern faith is like a freight train coming your way.

    They do that at every Nascar race, as Nascar assumes that everyone in their audience is a white protestant evangelical Christian. One of the reasons I tend to prefer Formula 1 these days.

    God, I love the South. The accents, the food, the people. Great. I'm not religious, but find this stuff endearing and funny. If people get offended by prayer, they're just sad sad people.
  • ThailandTomThailandTom Veteran
    I wouldn't say sad sad people, just ignorant and egotistic. Although that prayer was really really REALLY bad. people were laughing, even the drivers for gids sake. I found it a little funny at first, but then I found it a bit sorry in a way, because I know that guy means well and he is trying to conform to his faith in the way he thinks best maybe, (unless he has had a huge payout by sponsers).

    I'm only offended by prayer at public, government sponsored events, not private events like NASCAR.

    @Bekenze have you seen the NASCAR episode of southpark. Also is there a reason you have become cold towards me, have you become some spy or something using those numner stations? I told everyone, It is Steven Hawkings Family conversing, hush hush!

    At every military (i.e. government sponsored) event I've ever been to, a non-denominational prayer starts it off from a chaplain. Never bothered me. To me it's not an endorsement of a religion to have a prayer at the beginning of a city hall meeting or something given that most of the residents are Christian.

    Good one, Bekenze! Thanks for the rib tickler.

    A Southern Preacher with a case of stage fright sounds like. Don't know what to bless? Bless everything with the scattershot approach and hope you get it right. Ha! Ha! Priceless!

    Oh I'm not personally offended by it, but it's not something I feel belongs in an auto race. Also it's rather exclusionary (and flies in the face of Nascar's so-called diversity program). I'd feel the same if it were Buddhist prayers being offered.

    Holy deep fry double wide, that's funny.

    that's a scream... kinda think that if our catholic priest had run mass on similar lines, the church woulda bin fuller.....

    I kinda wonder on a serious note, that if they pray for the well-being and safety of the drivers though... and one of said drivers dies - do they shake their fist at god for not listening?

    "....hot dickety-damn, well that didn't work....!"
