I went to school in Dallas myself. :)
We all said the Pledge of Allegiance and nobody ran around tearing their hair out because they were offended.
We all prayed and nobody wailed that they were down trodden.
So do you think that ONE person...Madilyn Murray O’Hare or whatever her name was, had such a loud voice that it opened the door for all of this craziness to become more overt and acceptable?
Reading the article about the Peanuts dilemma it must have been going on for a long time...just behind the curtain (so to speak).
I just had an after thought.
It really had little to do with MMOH’s big voice...it had to do with the Supreme Court that upheld her minority complaint.
Yes, it has been going on for a long time. People think it’s just recent, but it’s not. However it is getting a whole lot more pervasive,
Even “God’s chosen people” - the Jews of ancient Israel - had the same problem, which is part of the reason why God scattered them way back then - to now regathering them, once again - getting ready for His Son, the Messiah of Israel, to return and set up His Kingdom on earth.
But, it does even go further back in history - when we look at Noah and the worldwide flood to kill all of humanity. Jesus referred to this as to how it would be getting again - when He is about to return.
