NASA bans the word 'Jesus'
Fox News ^ | February 8, 2015 | Todd Starnes

The name of Jesus is not welcome in the Johnson Space Center newsletter, according to a complaint filed on behalf of a group of Christians who work for NASA.

The JSC Praise & Worship Club was directed by NASA attorneys to refrain from using the name 'Jesus' in club announcements that appeared in a Space Center newsletter.

"It was shocking to all of us and very frustrating," NASA engineer Sophia Smith told me. "NASA has a long history of respecting religious speech. Why wouldn't they allow us to put the name Jesus in the announcement about our club?"

Liberty Institute, one of the nation's largest religious liberty law firms, threatened to file a federal lawsuit unless NASA apologizes and stops censoring the name 'Jesus'.

Needless to say Jesus was very sad when he showed up to work today -- He was confused and uncertain if he would stay at NASA

YES!
It IS the whole “support Islam to squelch Christianity” agenda, coming from this White House and his lackeys at NASA.
