He already did that by providing a hurricane during the Republican convention after they had prayed for rain during the Democratic one. Any idea what he can do to finally make them get the message?

Thinking further Even if if And the LORD God took the man, and put him into the garden of Eden to dress it and to keep it. was written on the wall they'd probably still say "See its all about abortion" and carry on.
