I'm sure this is something that has been posted a few times today, but the case certainly interests me. The long and short is that this teacher is being an activist to combat the removal of God from the classroom, and the censorship of our history. Yes, censorship actually being used in the proper context. Wow.

I am uncomfortable that caught in the middle of all of this is a fifth grade classroom. But I can accept it.

Basically the teacher is using the old 'put out the quote and when people object, give the source' technique. Something that we did during the campaign, or at least I did through e-mails. "Who said this?" and give loads of quotes, then reveal to the outraged liberal that hey, that's the guy they're voting for.

The school administration is playing right into his hands, 'reviewing' his class materials before they are handed out.

I guess what I'm saying is: where do we contribute to his legal fund?

If they want to take God out of their world, why don't they start with the name of San Francisco, named after St. Francis of Assisi (1182-1226 A. D.); who was cannonized a saint by Pope Gregory IX in 1228. It was Francis of Assisi who founded the Franciscan Order and it was his mission to inspire in all men rich or poor the love of God and reanimate the life of the spirit. He is called the patron saint of pets and the animal rights activists would not hesitate to hold St. Francis of Assisi up as one of their own.

In fact, here is my suggestion for a name change for San Francisco: call it Enmity. Enmity is what is left in ones heart when God is taken out. When Tony Bennet sings "I left my heart in Enmity", he will sing about a heart filled with hostility for God. I think I would leave such a heart too--for eternal damnation!
