Middle School in Virginia Bans Christmas Carols that Mention Jesus to be more "Inclusive"

Why is your protest vital?

Because Christmas carols with the name of Jesus were recently banned at Robious Middle School in Midlothian, Virginia.

NBC12 News reports:

"According to the teacher's email, after speaking with school administrators it was decided they would avoid singing anything of a direct sacred nature in order to be more sensitive to the increasing diverse population at the school."

David Allen, whose child attends the school, was informed that students will no longer sing Christmas carols that contain the word "Jesus."

Stunned by the news, Allen said: "I'm trying to rationalize how you can encourage diversity and yet be exclusionary in one specific area."

Please stand up for the Child Jesus.
Sign your peaceful protest to keep Christ in Christmas.

Spirit of antichrist.

It’s absolutely real.

American culture is being replaced or eliminated, step by step, by a thousand cuts.

Language, traditions, borders, values. Everything.

And by the way, you're a phobe of some sort if you dare to point that out.

well, so many public screwals teach
American civics/history without our liberties
and
Maths without arithmetic or algebra
and
English without Shakespeare, Dickens, Faulkner, or Hemingway

they may as well have Christmas without Jesus?

it fits right in... to the DUMBING DOWN of America

Why not sing Aqualung to warm up to Mohammad. Eyeing little girls with bad intent.

Also, what is their definition of “inclusive” what does that mean?

I am trying to rationalize why Christians have their children in public school indoctrination centers, when God specifically charges believers to separate from the world. Homeschool or Christian school. There are no other viable options in this day.

This issue is an example of state actors abridging constitutionally enumerated rights imo, 1st Amendment-protected religious expression and free speech in this example, state actors violating Section 1 of the 14th Amendment by doing so imo. 

In fact, patriots who value their constitutionally enumerated protections should note that Acts 22:25-29 shows that Paul used his Roman citizenship to save himself from being flogged.

H O W E V E R …

Unless Pres. Trump can work with gridlocked Congress to make punitive laws to discourage state actors from abridging constitutionally enumerated protections, patriots may need to wait until after they can elect a patriot Congress that will actually do its duty to protect enumerated rights.

If Christian parents don’t ban middle schools, they’re guilty of child neglect.

Our local school district will be out from the 20th of December until January 7. A non-certified employee said that for her the time off translates several days without pay. Most parents in the district work which leaves children unsupervised and/or $$$$ payouts for sitters which most can ill afford. And of course there is the interruption in the curriculum which will require re-teaching and re-learning.
