Stuart Shepard, digital media director for Focus on the Family's "Focus Action," is hoping for sudden, heavy rain at Denver's Invesco Field at Mile High during the speech of a certain presidential nominee on August 28.

"Abundant rain," he quipped. "Torrential rain. Urban and small stream flood advisory rain."

"I know," Shepard said in the video. "You might ask, why would I pray for that? Well, I'm still pro-life. And I'm still in favor of marriage being only between one man and one woman. And I'd like the next President, who will select justices for the U.S. Supreme Court, to agree."

If God decides that "rain of biblical proportions would be a good and proper meteorological condition for that evening," he added, "we'll see it, and we'll say that it is good."

Focus on the Family pulled the video, originally released on July 30, and told The Gazette on Monday that they received complaints from some of their members, and that it was meant to be "mildly humorous."
