Student Punished for Christian Faith
/godfatherpolitics.com ^ | Giacomo

Posted on 09/23/2011 4:54:20 PM PDT by Iam1ru1-2

Fourteen year old Dakota Ary attends Western Hills High School in Fort Worth Texas. He is an honor student, plays football and has never been in trouble at school; that is until earlier this week.

According to Dakota, the topic of homosexuality has been discussed on a number of occasions in his German language class. When the topic came up in class again this week, he told the student behind him that he was a Christian and that he believed being a homosexual was wrong. His German teacher overheard his comment and started yelling at him and threatened to write him up with an infraction and then sent him to the school’s office. Upon hearing what had taken place and what Dakota had said, the assistant principal gave Dakota a two day suspension from school.

The school called Dakota’s mom, Holly Pope to inform her that her son was in trouble. After Pope expressed her dissatisfaction with the school’s actions, the suspension was reduced from two days down to one day. Pope was still not satisfied that the school insisted on punishing her son for expressing his Christian belief to another student.

Listen to Dakota and his mother:

Matt Krause, an attorney, has picked up the case for Dakota and his mom and has threatened legal action against the school for violating Dakota’s 1st Amendment right of free speech. If necessary, Krause is prepared to take this case all the way to the US Supreme Court.

This is one of the growing number of cases where teachers in public schools are intolerant and abusive to any student who stands up for their Christian faith. We hear reports all the time where science teachers actually target Christians, especially those that believe in biblical creation and openly ridicule them in front of their classmates. Some teachers even tell their Christian students that they are stupid and ignorant. Last year a bus driver called a female student a ‘stupid little bigot’ for telling another kid on the bus that homosexuality was wrong and there was no action taken against the bus driver.

It’s okay to slander, ridicule, defame and blaspheme God, the Bible and Jesus Christ. However let a Christian express their faith, even if only to another student and more and more schools will punish them for it.

Our public school system has become so permeated and corrupted by secular atheistic humanism that everything is tolerated, including sexual perversion, pagan religions and Bible bashing; everything that is except Christianity. This should be a warning to any Christian parent that has a child in the public school system. Sending a Christian child into the secular public schools is no different than sending them to a daycare run by a pedophile. They are placing their children in a dangerous situation that has the sole purpose of destroying their faith.

“I’m an atheist and I believe that worshiping a make believe deity is wrong.”

Hmmmm ... I wonder if a kid would get suspended for saying that?

That was my thought, too. Bet anything that the teacher is a homosexual.

Was he making his point in German or in English?

Things are awfully sad when you can’t disagree in any language with what homosexuals believe.

Wow, one offhand remark inspires the teacher and school administration to become asses.

This article follows up by doing the same for militant “Christians”.
They are throwing out pejorative attacks against anyone who is not sufficiently “Christian” to meet their standards.
Reminds me of the Taliban, do it OUR way or be attacked, talk about zero tolerance!

So yes, I am an what was it, a Secular Humanist Atheist?
I will let the rabid “Christians” alone so long as they do the same for me.
I had nothing to do with this school and it’s pathetic intolerance for non-PC thought.

Attacking ALL atheist over the actions of some PC drone is stupid, you only inspire reactionary loathing from people who otherwise would not oppose you.

A pox on all extremist!

This is the e-mail address of this godless and socialist-funded government school.

web@fwisd.org

If you check the website you will find a page with the teachers’ e-mail addresses. There are 7 “world language” teachers listed.

The student used the pronoun, “he”, when talking about his teacher, therefore, the teacher is a male. But...Gee!...It's hard to know in these days of sexual transformation surgery.

The following are the e-mail addresses:

bernardo.vallarino@fwisd.org

reydesel.solis@fwisd.org

krystofer.lang@fwisd.org

kimberly.hyde@fwisd.org

Elizabeth.garcia@fwisd.org

kristopher.franks@fwisd.org

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Ok....Then join with me, a Christian, to work for complete closure of all government schooling.

If it is wrong for Christians to force their religious worldview on others, then it is wrong for government force a godless religious worldview on Christian children or any child, or to force the taxpayer to pay for it.

With a name like Dakota, he needs to make it known he is not gay.

I agree with you on the rush to extremes by all sides. That being said if you ever would like to dicuss my Christian faith and why as a trained scientist/engineer I believe as i do, then i would be open to sharing.

Oh TAHT would work out well, we would soon have the education level of sub-saharan Africa.

I have a better, and much easier solution, just stop promoting social engineering via the schools.

Students and staff may believe in any superstition they like, or none.
They do not get Gov. Org. help in promoting it, or suppressing contradictory thought.

Terrorism to be the natural exception of course.

Are militant “Christians” related to rabid “Christians” ? Are all bible believing Christians either militant or rabid or both?

“Are militant “Christians” related to rabid “Christians” ?”
I would say so. ;-)

“Are all bible believing Christians either militant or rabid or both?”
Not that I have seen, though there does seem to be a higher ration of them here on FR.

My local area is saturated with Mormons, with just about every other religion well represented as well.

Most folk here leave the proselytizing to the church elders, and we all get along fine by doing so.

I don’t proselytize atheism, but I also refuse to be intimidated into non-response when attacked.
I also don’t bother trying to convert anyone, I am not afraid of the mythical “Hell” and attempts to convert me are a waste of the pious time.
Door ringing proselytizers learned to skip my place long ago.

If you equate proselytizing with rabid or militant Christians, then you have a problem with all true Christians. You see, when God is your lord and your lord gives you a command you must obey.

For us Christians, the command God gave us is GO. It is the same command he gave to Moses and others of faith.

Go.

Specifically, Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, (Mat 28:19), And guess what. Its not a command for only elders.

So, the reason you may see an inordinate amount of what you call rabid and militant Christians is because these are "Normal Christians" who are obeying our lord and master. Unlike you, we are not our own master.

“If you equate proselytizing with....”
Perhaps not “Rabid”, but certainly “Militant”.

“we are not our own master.”
My condolences, I prefer freedom.

Enough, I’m not interested in reforming anyone except the insane school officials who’s intolerance originally inspired this thread.

Good night.
