Pray, ironic choice of words.

How so?

OP is encouraging the kind of religious enthusiasm that is typically associated with the Republican Party and the candidates that OP and many others on Reddit and ITT are against.

While it is an undeniable trend, I would like to gently remind people that there are plenty of Christians who are ashamed of what the GOP is now, and I don't think there's anything wrong with praying that a psycho scumbag like Mastriano, or a disgustingly rich walking lie like Oz don't get into office.

Plenty of anti-MAGA authoritarians are religious. Josh Shapiro is religious. Biden is religious, as is Obama. (Trump? Lol.) It’s entirely a matter of personal choice and conscience. It’s only a problem when someone tries to impose their religion on others.

You're absolutely right. And while we're at it, let's keep in mind that not all Republicans are voting for Mastriano and Oz. My husband and I used to cancel out each other's votes, but in the past few years, that has changed.

Pray is a funny word because it invokes a god type reference into politics.
