It’s a timeless tale in the world of Hollywood entertainment. One can’t seem to escape the constant attacks on prayer and Christianity across a wide variety of television shows, but it appears the attacks are becoming more frequent lately. NBC’s time travel drama Timeless took its turn in Sunday’s episode, “The Kennedy Curse,” as a main character takes credit for answering his mother’s prayers instead of attributing it to God, Who, he claims, “doesn’t exist.”

Rufus (Malcolm Barrett) is a scientist who is part of a group of time travelers who are working to stop a nefarious counter-agent group that wants to alter history. Jiya (Claudia Doumit) is a member of Rufus’s group and has been having visions that have been coming true. As she discusses her visions with Rufus as they try to track down a young John F. Kennedy (he was accidentally brought from 1934 to today in their time machine and escaped from their hidden bunker), she asks Rufus if he ever wonders if there’s “something bigger out there,” a “higher power.”

Rufus’s answer is a typical example of how leftist writers don’t understand and completely misrepresent Christianity, God and prayer:

This may have been true earlier in the season but by the end of the season I think he was starting to see things differently. God works in mysterious ways. I hope to see an article on his change some day.
