Nearly all of Utah is in drought. Gov. Cox again asks Utahns to pray and fast for rain.

Could also paint a lot of buffalo on a cave wall to bring more buffalo.

That’s the kind of attitude we would ridicule if it came from, say, India.

It’s better that Utah’s government acknowledge the issue and say they need “practical action”. But it invoking “divine help” is really worrying.

Meh? Utah is deeply religious and Cox is just playing to his audience. It would probably be foolish not to invoke prayer at this point.
