The truth is they are communists hiding behind atheism to replace an all powerful govt for God. Same crew who were running around Germany and Russia.

Pray for America to Wake Up

Whenever I hear the phrase ‘freedom of religion’ I mentally acknowledge that the same applies to Muslims. However, at the same time and thoughts I object to Muslims using this religion aspect to impose an Islam society Sharia law over or together with our Constitution and derivative laws. Something has to give and I would not feel unconstitutional to impose on all Muslims for citizenship at least that they had to denounce any dedication to any other form or activities of Government that differs or or would conflict with our Constitution. My mother had to take such an oath to become a USA citizen. I would have much more ease if such a requirement turned many if not most Muslims back to to the Islamic nations.

On another site, I read and participated in some of the commentary... atheists are more steeped in anger than non-belief, IMO. And I’m also entertained by their attitude that Christians are “judgmental” about other people, when at the same time, they’ll equate us with the Taliban.

Anti-theists have a religious devotion to attacking those with a religious devotion.

I never complain about that newfangled Christian religion.

Texas high school silences Valedictorian’s microphone during speech on Constitution, report says

Published June 08, 2013

High school Valedictorian Remington Reimer’s microphone was shut off during his speech, prompting questions over his free speech rights. (MyFoxDFW.com.)

A Texas high school silenced its Valedictorian’s microphone during his speech when he diverted from his pre-approved remarks and instead spoke about the Constitution.

Joshua High School graduate Remington Reimer, who was accepted into the Naval Academy, had his microphone silenced during his speech right after he told fellow graduates that school officials apparently threatened him with the move the day before, MyFoxDFW.com reported.

Colin Radford, a fellow graduate told MyFoxDFW.com that Reimer was “talking about getting constitutional rights taken away from him, and then he said “just yesterday they threatened to turn my microphone off,” and then his microphone went off.”

“Student speakers were told that if their speeches deviated from the prior-reviewed material, the microphone would be turned off, regardless of content,” Joshua Independent School District said in a statement.
