How about letting Christian students celebrate Christmas with a real Christmas concert instead of a "holiday" concert where they can't mention Jesus or sing carols? It's time to speak up, Christians. Our liberties are slowly being taken away from us in the name of political correctness.

They're trying to keep ANY Christian who believes in the sovereignty of God and of His Son Jesus Christ in check. Our faith scares them because it IS radical.

You suggest something absolutely unAmerican. Christian prayer and other overt religious activity was encouraged and often required by the government in most all public schools until the 1940's. NO ONE considered this "establishment" until someone resurrected a private letter of Jefferson that made reference to a phantom "wall of seperation" that he personally thought might be nice - but which was never the prevailing understanding in the USA. Any position to the contrary is an aberrration of the Constitution and Bill of Rights.

Do you realize how un-American your sentiments are?

We've always known that the only religion not tolerated in the US is the Christian religion; this is just a shift from tacit to overt discrimination.

That's it in a nutshell.

Liberals are such cowards. They know that Christians will sit and take this, while they're afraid that Muslims will blow them up. So they cave in to the Muslims.

(It doesn't matter if most Muslims are peaceful. We're talking about the hysterical perceptions of liberals here. Now that I've gotten that out of the way, let me continue . . . . )

It's like some feminists I know, who will loudly complain that all men are jerks -- until they're actually in the presence of a jerk. Then suddenly they become very, very submissive.

What about Kwaanza being shoved down our throats? It has nothing to do with Christmas, yet the eastern public schools insist this phony religion be part of Christmas.

Throw it out, few blacks respect or observe it anyway.

Note to teachers:

None proselytized, ALL accomodated The FEDucation system cannot accomodate all, and still teach the 3 R's. Therefore, the Department of FEDucation system must be dismantled to allow 'local' customs to prevail in schools so that education can be focused on the universal subjects rather than the parochial ones, IMHO.

Guess they figure Muslims are going to NEED prayers more than the rest of us.

The Christian kids should walk into the Muslim prayer rooms and start speaking in tongues.

NO cheese in schools. Period. (Isn't that what the dot means at the end of a sentence...?)

You better have someone there who has an interpretation, otherwise you have some unbiblical stuff happening...

Most excellent! I reposted that prayer over at Michael Moore's Bulletin board. The liberals there are in a frenzy trying to explain why Muslims can pray and Christians can't:

Michael Moore's Bulletin Board

Only a handful of conservatives post on MM. Any backup would be appreciated.
