Palin Blessed by Kenyan Witchhunter


The Times Online has posted a report about a Kenyan evangelist that Sarah Palin says blessed her and played a crucial role in her decision to become the Governor of Alaska.

Apparently, the evangelist is also literally a witchhunter. Here's a quote:

According to the Christian Science Monitor, six months of fervent prayer and research identified the source of the witchcraft as a local woman called Mama Jane, who ran a "divination" centre called the Emmanuel Clinic.

Her alleged involvement in fortune-telling and the fact that she lived near the site of a number of fatal car accidents led Pastor Muthee to publicly declare her a witch responsible for the town's ills, and order her to offer her up her soul for salvation or leave Kiambu.

Says the Monitor, "Muthee held a crusade that 'brought about 200 people to Christ'." They set up round-the-clock prayer intercession in the basement of a grocery store and eventually, says the pastor "the demonic influence – the 'principality' over Kiambu – was broken", and Mama Jane fled the town.
