I find it rather ironic that most of the people denouncing this couple and their beliefs are believers themselves. ANYONE who has ever prayed, and done so with the expectations that they are important enough that they're  prayers will have any effect on what they're praying for has no place to comment. Prayer either works or it doesn't. You don't get to "pick" your level of prayer. These folks have a higher level of commitment is all. 1 Samuel 15:3 says, "Do not spare them; put to death men and women,children and infants." Nice book.  We're a nation that drives to church talking on our cell phones about American Idol. How pathetic. It's time religion is exposed for the embarrrasing relic of our past that it is and move on.
