Please. That’s the old headline (which we’ve seen at least twice). The new one is, they put it back.

Grammar alert. How quaint. As if the purpose of government run schools is to teach such stuff.

God is under attack all the world over and He will soon put this to an end in the most unpleasant way imaginable.

From what I heard on FOX radio this morning, the school dropped the song entirely.
