Liberals believe the 1st Amendment forbids freedom of religion.
Mark Davis does it on his radio show. Now if he were the WH press secretary I’d eat it up.
“(Principal) told them that they could not pray at the pole or in the presence of students because if they did so, students may see and join in.”
And that is one thing that no school wants, a praying student.
Where do they get these fools to run schools?
"This year she had gathered with two friends and fellow teachers to pray at the school flagpole. The school principal called these teachers into his office.
He told them that they could not pray at the pole or in the presence of students because if they did so, students may see and join in.
He told them that it was against the law for them to pray publicly where students could see them and then pointed them to a school policy that prohibited teachers from praying in the presence of students."
A lot of taxpayer money is wasted on "officials" and "experts with expertise" who are possessed with antagonism for, and imagine that their "policies" supersede, our Constitution and founding principals of Original Intent, Enumeration of Powers, and LIMITED GOVERNMENT.
But pornography in the libraray is OK.
What a jack-wagon.
That’s the beauty of the sign of the cross.
[[Officials insist it’s only allowed ‘when students are not present]]
Nope, not true! Sc has been all over this many times-
[[and then pointed them to a school policy that prohibited teachers from praying in the presence of students.”]]
Unconstitutional school policy!
“C. Overview of Governing Constitutional Principles
The First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution both prevents the government from establishing religion and protects religious exercise and religious expression from unwarranted government interference and discrimination. A public school and its officials may not prescribe prayers to be recited by students or by school authorities. However, nothing in the First Amendment converts the public schools into religion-free zones, or requires students, teachers, or other school officials to leave their private religious expression behind at the schoolhouse door. The line between government-sponsored and privately initiated religious expression is vital to a proper understanding of what the Religion and Free Speech Clauses of the First Amendment prohibit and protect. Although a government may not promote or favor religion or coerce the consciences of students, schools also may not discriminate against private religious expression by students, teachers, or other employees. Schools must also maintain neutrality among faiths rather than preferring one or more religions over others”

To forbid any expressions of dependence upon God (any), and or gratitude to Him by any gov. officials, effectively examples/teaches/inculcates atheism, as it conveys that the government in no way is dependent upon the supernatural, nor appreciative to deity.
Parents who abstain from the same, even at the dinner table, effectively do that same. But which is consistent with the principle expressed in,
...we have no government armed with power capable of contending with human passions unbridled by morality and religion. Avarice, ambition, revenge, or gallantry, would break the strongest cords of our Constitution as a whale goes through a net. Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other. (From a letter Adams wrote on 11 October 1798 to the officers of the First Brigade, Third Division, of the Massachusetts Militia) on October 11, 1798)
More, by the grace of God.
And the religion Adams had in mind was not Islam.
Yet to believe that an exceedingly vast, systematically ordered universe, exquisitely finely tuned for life with profound intricate complexity and corporeal diversity, can be all a result of purely natural processes requires much faith, more so than that the universe logically testifies to design, requiring a First Cause (at the least), that of a powerful being of supreme intelligence being behind the existence of energy and organization of matter.
This ping list is for the other articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. This can occasionally be a fairly high volume list. Articles pinged to the Another Reason to Homeschool List will be given the keyword of ARTH. (If I remember. If I forget, please feel free to add it yourself)
The main Homeschool Ping List handles the homeschool-specific articles. I hold both the Homeschool Ping List and the Another Reason to Homeschool Ping list. Please freepmail me to let me know if you would like to be added to or removed from either list, or both.
And yet they teach kids in depth about islam to the point of having them recite the Shahada in class.
Are there any schools that allow the middle eastern death cult members to interrupt lessons, kneel on their prayer rugs, and pray?
I’ll bet there are.
I would argue that that school’s policy against open prayer is acceptable if it includes prohibition against ANY LBGT discussions in school as well. If the issue is “keeping one’s ‘beliefs’ to themself” that must include all LBGT beliefs as well.
Where is the “hell breaking loose?”
Just boilerplate harassment of Christians. Happens daily.
Click bait.
And that would be... bad?
Someone help me out here.
I thought the reason that we had to get rid of prayer in school was because kids were being forced to pray. (That never happened, you can not force someone to pray. You may, by way of threat force them to mouth words but praying is a level beyond that).
Now teachers can not pray on their own time on school grounds because the students may, of their own accord, walk over and join in.
What am I missing?
