Boys and girls at an Alabama elementary school will still get to hunt for eggs – but they can’t call them ‘Easter Eggs’ have the principal banished the word for the sake of religious diversity.

“We had in the past a parent to question us about some of the things we do here at school,” said Heritage Elementary School principal Lydia Davenport. “So we’re just trying to make sure we respect and honor everybody’s differences.”

“Wow..I read that Alabama is a very conservative state.”

Don’t take this personal mirkwood, but WHEN ARE YOU PEOPLE GOING TO REALIZE WHO RUNS THE SCHOOLS.

Alabama, Texas (see tagline), EVERY DAMN STATE. In some states they are closer to the overall political leanings of the people, but I’m not even sure the people in the hard-blue states are as WHACKED OUT as the teachers and the others running the schools. It’s that bad - and they keep THROWING IT IN YOUR FACE, but you figure - it can’t happen here, happens only in those nutty places. Well, the last time that I checked, Alabama was quite red and far from “nutty”.

(again, this isn’t directed at you...it’s for everyone)

And that, my friends, is why we should separate school and state.

“Groundwork for the continued islamization of America.”

> Exactly. Yet hundreds of millions, if not billions, of people are insulted and offended that
> islam and it’s promotion of violence is allowed to exist, so when will it be banned?

When enough people realize that Islam is a terrorist cult:

To be liberal, we have to ban Christmas, Easter, remove all religious symbols from public view, etc. That’s how to be liberal and honor everyone’s views and beliefs.

Yeah, to honor someone's difference is not let them be themselves, but to force them be just like me.

Maybe it's time to put those water hoses back into use.

Well the White House may be having an April 1st egg hunt on Monday (if the sequ’easter doesn’t stop it).

How is it “religious diversity” if one particular faith (the majority) is excluded purposefully?? As usual, libtard talk makes no sense whatsoever.

Lydia Davenport, you better go to the Parish Priest tonight for him to hear your confession and even longer for the Priest to give you Penance.

What if their parents liked the band “Let’s Active”, and liked the singer Mitch Easter...

As it was in the days of Noah... every inclination of the thoughts of the human heart was only evil all the time... so it will be at the coming of the Son of Man...
when you see all these things, you know that he is near, right at the door.
