    That’s their idea, pray for rain? How far they have fallen. Old Slavs knew that only human sacrifice helps bring rain

        Defenestration is a sacrifice to protestant God. Not Slavic or even orthodox. No wonder they aren’t seeing results.

      I guess the 600,000 sacrifices in Ukraine don’t count since they were sacrificed for greed and blind nationalism instead of rain.

    Any fool know it has to be ‘thoughts and prayers’, not just ‘prayers’. Without the ‘thoughts’ you are just an idiot mumbling to yourself like a kid wishing for toys from Santa Claus
