Deliver us from Kony
Here's a very disturbing example of taking the Lord's name in vain.:

Kony has blended and twisted elements of Christianity, Islam, and African witchcraft into a demonic cult of savagery. The Lord's Resistance Army (LRA) of Uganda has enlisted (read abducted) as many as 50,000 children.

This article is NOT for children.
The Bush administration has placed the LRA on tier two of its Terrorist Exclusion List, which means the LRA is judged not to be a threat to U.S. interests.

Rory Anderson, senior Africa policy adviser for World Vision says there is "...no significant leadership to move the issue to the point where there are congressional hearings..."

Here's a clip:
Michael Oruni, director of Uganda's Children of War Rehabilitation Center, told CT he was urging Christians to get involved: "Imagine your own child taken away, being raped as your family is killed in front of your eyes. If it were you, what would you feel like?

"Kids in Uganda—kids just like yours—are taken every night and enslaved, raped, mutilated, murdered. You can make a difference. Talk to your government. Help us."
