My first thread post, sorry if I did it wrong. Thought CT freepers would be interested. Constructive criticism welcome! Thank you in advance.

Great job-thanks for the info!

When will the people of this country say enough is enough on this type of crap.

Where was the ACLU when Nidal Hasan subjected numerous U.S. Army personnel to religious messages? (Long before he decided to shoot the troops, that is.)

A virgin no more! How's it feel?

Lol

But seriesly. You did good. I noticed it was an AP article, so it had to be excerpted. Which you did.

I woulda added a little more. I always try to max out the excerpt.

I think the ALCU needs to re-read the Constitution. The Constitution prevents the Gov't from creating a state sponsored church; it explictly forbids the Gov't from exercising an infaction of the free practicing of worship.

I have yet to attend a non-Military graduation, where attendance was manditory.

Can the ACLU be sued? Or does it take an act of congress to deal with the organization? They have become very oppressive to christians.

Can someone please point out where in the Constitution there is a right to be free from “religous messages”? I’m pretty sure the Fed is not involved here and my understanding the Constitution limits the Feds power it does not enumerate our rights (or non-rights if you are the ACLU).

This should get taken all the way to the SCOTUS so this crap can end forever.

Good Lord. Um, so to speak.

It seems to me that if an atheist attends a graduation ceremony in a church and is thereby enticed into the eeeeevil clutches of Jesus, his atheism was pretty weak to begin with.

What does “Congress shall make no law” have to do with this, with school prayer, with high school football games, etc.?

[RobbyS]

These people are insane, but people keep giving into them because they have deep pockets. They have the same mind set as a old maid who makes you take off your shoes and put on slippers when you walk through the door.

[Leo Farnsworth]

Sheesh! You need to understand where you went wrong on this post:

The ACLU is GOOD - it's CT that's bad!.

Great post.

[kevinm13]

I want an end to the ACLU.

[groanup]

In most towns, especially small ones, the local churches are exempt from property taxes. In exchange they allow the townships to use the auditoriums for such things as graduations, school board meetings, voting, etc.

The ACLU is crapping on everyone's leg with this.

[Jaidyn]

I bet that nearly all the ACLU members have been exposed to religion in their life times. Either their parents took them to church, or they prayed in school. And, instead of being indoctrinated by the Christians, just the opposite seems to have happened. If Christianity didn’t hurt them, why do they insist it is corrupting our children? Who has actually been hurt by being subjected to the word, “Jesus”? And, why does God offend them, while giving a pass to someone yelling, Allah Akbar? There is no consistency with the ACLU, except that it’s consistently harassing Christians.

[YOUGOTIT]

When will the people of this Nation stop giving the children of Hitler and Stalin money to destroy our country? The ACLU is a Communist/Nazi organizations and was organized and started to destroy the United States. Doing a Hitler/Stalin job with our tax money in completing their goal.
