Fighting Crime with Prayer

If a Christian does this, no problem. It's not really such a bad thing, right?

Except, how far can we push that idea? If he advocated citizens sacrificing goats to Zeus, well, now it's just crazy talk. Pushing your beliefs on others is apparently acceptable as long as you believe in an "appropriate" or accepted imaginary friend. Sure, he talks about "all faiths" but that's a pretty huge blanket statement that means very little, especially to those of us with no faith.

Imagine the uproar if an atheist held this position and asked the community to stop praying and take action instead. The outrage and backlash would be swift and intense.

Definitely inappropriate. If your faith is so strong that you can't separate it from a public office, elected or no, you should not hold public office. Show some real commitment to your faith and go back to being a minister if your views are so strong.
