Is Bud Adams God?

He could well be, according to the organizers of a religious march/fast/piety thing planned for Nashville this weekend (see related Scene story). At least that's how I read the group's vision narrative:


In 1993, Bob Jones prophesied, "The Houston Oilers would move to Nashville, and Nashville would build God a stadium. And 100,000 people, particularly youth, would gather for a great mobilization of the army of God." With this prophecy in effect, I was praying about holding The Call in Titan Stadium in Nashville on 07-07-07.


The organization behind this is rooted in a sixties/San Francisco obsession, blaming pretty much everything wrong with America - the "hellish addictions of our culture" - on young people who flocked to SF to experience hippiedom and then went home, "flooding the cities of the U.S. and Europe with a message that opposed authority and scorned conservative morals." Yikes!
