Ping for your Post 10. I'm very glad to hear it.

Or if she had thanked Satan......oops!...I forgot.... Allah "is" Satan's Nom de plume.

Dracula is on the school board.

"then governmnet schools"

especially when they spell it wrong

Taking advanced placement classes. They are given higher credits than regular classes. In Texas, if you've taken some of these you can test out of college classes. My cousin entered Texas Tech as a sophomore 3 years ago.

Too bad she had to lie to do. That really praised Jesus.

Too bad the "Praise Jesus" crowd posting here didn't read the actual story.

All speakers at her school submit their speeches for editing and approval. Her's was edited and she agreed to give it that way. She was told that if she deviated she would be cut off. She decided to give it the original way and they cut her off.

Never let the truth get in the way of a good rant by Christians.

Can you spell F-U?

Interesting that I mentioned examples of where my siblings HAVE mentioned deity with no censorship at high school graduations and I didn't get a reply.

Cool, a liberal is here. I'm just poking fun. Geez, don't get your foo-foos tied up in a knot.

[RobbyS]

Somehow liberals don't find it offensive when blacks do this sort of thing. Something like, well, it is part of "their"culture. A way for liberals to demonstrate their tolerance.

[moog]

I agree. Nice post!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Stupid that they did it after having read it.

[nonliberal]

who knew it was coming

That is why you don't tell them.

[DManA]

You think the post you were replying to is "liberal".

[freekitty]

I have never heard anything so ridiculous or stupid in my life.

[StonyBurk]

I disagree-- the honorable thing to do would be to educate
the school-- mention of the name of Jesus christ is NOT any
violation of the First amendment. The crooked Courts led
by the transmisison belt to Soviet Communist dictatorship
(the ACLU) hav deliberately mis interpreted-and misapplied
the First Amendmentfor years now declaring what is NOT seen
and Never was the intent of the men who wrote that document,
as if their imagination is LAW.When "We the people"allowed
the unjust Judges act as gods-and gave them rule over us --
we ceased to be worthy of the name The United States of America.

[BykrBayb]

Maybe the liberal troll didn't see it. Try again.

"You think the post you were replying to is "liberal"."

Nah, I meant the liberal language used--the same thing they say when I post my dumb one-liners to them. Geez, it was just a typo. I do that all the time and laugh when someone points it out--I can laugh at myself.

I'm Jewish and I say BRAVO. She worked hard and if she wants to thank G-d in her way, then please, she's earned the right. I cannot imagine any parent begruding. She has faith, that and a 4.7 GPA are to be admired.

Bless you! You're on the right track.

Barukh atah Adonai Elohaynu melekh ha-olam, borei p’riy ha-gafen. (Amein)

Blessed are You, Lord, our God, King of the Universe, who creates the fruit of the vine. (Amen)

[PeteB570]

They agreed to let her give the edited version.

She decided to go with the original version knowing they said they would cut her off if she did.

She lied to the school officials.

It's OK for a Christian to lie to others to get her way? Gee, kinda' sounds like something out of the Qu'ran to me.

I guess "Good Christians" and Muslims are more alike than we think.
