Nothing that truly falls under the First Amendment should ever be banned. I exclude pornographic, scatological, and other garbage that the statist courts have ruled acceptable.

Change

“For God did not give us a spirit of timidity, but of power, love, and self-discipline. Timothy 1:7.”

To

“We don’t have a spirit of timidity, but of power, love, and self-discipline.”

That way you keep the message and people know where it is coming from.

FReeped.

Same 90/10 split for yes/no.

Freeped...and VERY true on freedom of speech. When are the libs going to actually READ the constitution and amendments like they were initially written? It says freedom OF religion...not FROM religion. They also have every right to speak their minds.

Thanks for the ping!

The SCHOOL has no business putting up religious messages, and neither do the teachers, but the STUDENTS do have the right. The school does NOT have the right to stop them, either. Which they should know, and are likely to find out the hard way, in court.

I grew up in Chattanooga. I left for many years and lived in the God forsaken New England states (the 3 most Godless states in the union are there). It is a blessing and a privilege to be back in the south, even though I am not in Chattanooga for a while. It is a shame to see the atheistic secularism attempting to remove God here, too. We all must remember our Freedom to Exercise our religious beliefs.

We also must remember that our public schools are government schooling. Our atheistic secular public schools teach atheistic secular socialism. It is a conflict of their interests to let God or any religion other than atheism anywhere near the targets (students) of the atheistic socialist indoctrination and the Federal Courts are full of activist judges whom legislate from the bench.

It is true that not a single Supreme Court Justice has ever acknowledged the personhood of an unborn child...this action tells us in undeniable truth just how Godless these justices and their systems of justice are. Their justice truly is blind (Catholic Formal Heretics, many of them).

This is also what the Federal government seeks with government run healthcare. It baffles me that religious persons don't see that government run healthcare is atheistic secular healthcare...God and/or religions other than atheism are strictly prohibited from entering into the practices of medicine and the conscience of the so-called medical providers is prohibited any validation based on their own religious beliefs. Deathcare is a most appropriate term for a system that murders unborn children, kills the elderly and disabled via euthanasia and assisted suicide to cut costs to the State and fulfill atheistic secular state interests. Our medical facilities will become very similar to our public schools...performing at poor standards and eliminating God and religion other than atheism. Soon all the doctors will be atheists, whether they acknowledge the truth of their atheism or not. A lot like Nancy Pelosi and Ted Kennedy refer to themselves as Catholics, but could hardly be considered Catholic by the Church itself.
