In this case, the school represents the state and is violating the very separation it invokes.
James Lucas needs to be tarred and feathered.
But only after he is beaten black and blue with baseball bats.
Where did this creep come from?
I bet that the school needs that room for a muzzie prayer room.
That is what we did in my high school back in 1974. We were told the same thing, so we started standing around the flag pole and praying and talking about God. The Admin was not happy, but they didn’t have the guts to arrest us.
One more slapdown is on the way for the Christ-haters. This is an object lesson: The Left never stops. They will try again and again to destroy Christianity in America because they are of their father Satan.
Do you think the God of the Universe. . You know the one that created the universe with His breath feels intimidated by these highly educated public school officials?
Intimidated, no; offended, yes.
Right next to that clause that says that it's O.K. to murder babies.
When I was in public high school in the 1970’s, my school had Youth for Christ. It was an officially-recognized student organization. They met at the school in the evening. They even had their picture in the yearbook. If a school won’t allow students to gather informally at school on the free time, I guess there wouldn’t be much hope (in some school districts, at least) for YFC.
So my question would be: what has changed in the realm of constitution law in the past forty years that puts the students at this school in violation of “the separation of church and state”? Or do these cases come from the whim of some pea-brained school administrator?
When you consider all the bad stuff that can go on in a school these days, it’s really amazing that school administrators wind up coming down on the praying kids.
The proper response to that command is to say “God bless you, we’ll pray for you too”, then just continue on as before.
The only constitution that says “the church is separated from the state and the school from the church” is the old USSR one. So you can figure out where these teachers are coming from based on that.
That is the reason I sent my to a Christian School and is now working on his doctorate at Penn St.
Pray America wakes up
It is long past the time that Christians need to tell the school system and the courts to go F*** themselves. They need to be deliberately defied.
It would be nice if we could recover the original intent of the word “establishment” in the First Amendment.
Typical teachers. They have no idea what the constitution means. Semi-literate morons.
And being gay.
Work, play, cats, [the] king, and snot are all four letters…
I was at a public school recently and watched as a young child paused to pray before he ate his lunch. He had no adult reminding him. He was in a room full of other children talking and taking out their lunches.
On another day recently, I watched a grandmother remind her grandchild to thank God for his food before he tore into it. This was on a school field trip. She has no front teeth. And she appears poor and lacking in intelligence. But her belief is so very powerful and moving to me.
I thank God for these rays of light in this dark world.
They should start a Muslim prayer group and see how that turns out, that would undoubtedly be fine.
Liberals can't read.
