Fox News reports on Pastor Steven Anderson of Tempe, Arizona’s Faithful Word Baptist Church says that he did not want to “rile people up” by praying for Obama’s death in a sermon.

myfoxphoenix reports: “Anderson is standing by his controversial sermon, entitled "Why I Hate Barack Obama." Video of the sermon has hit YouTube, and he's taped explaining why he hates the President and praying for his death.” You can find the full article and a link to the video here:

The Faithful Word Baptist Church describes itself as “a young, family-oriented church.” Their website states “Pastor Anderson holds no college degree but has well over 100 chapters of the Bible committed to memory, including almost half of the New Testament.” In my opinion, Anderson missed a few important chapters of the Bible.

My guess is that a fairly high percentage of Pastor Anderson's congregation are those who are offended by President Obama's education speech. Funny.

If you think there is something slightly wrong here, please let Pastor Anderson know:
