It's for the children, y'know.

I think in an earlier thread it mentioned the lawsuit was brought about by a man who formed a church that worships penises. He claimed if the commandments stood, he had the right to erect a stone pahllic symbol on school grounds.

Firstly - why isn't this guy locked up? Wanna bet he's on some kind of medication or has been diagnosed with a mental prblem osf some kind? I wonder if children in his "church" are exposed to phallic symbols and if so wouldn't that be sexual mistreatment of a minor? Why isn't the state doing anything about that or why didn't anyone question that?prisoner6

Hmmm...I was distracted and posted before I finished. In any case...

Secondly he uses totally false reasoning. Just because the tablets were there it does NOT give him the right to erect a phallis.

In my understanding it IS NOT the fed's business, but rather the will of the community. If the community is predominately Jewish that community may place their symbols in the school and ovbserve their holidays. Same thing if it's Hindu, Bhuddist, Moslem or whatever. The ONLY stipulation I can see is that it must be an established religion.

The same ACLU which, at this very moment, is trying to shove radical Islam down our throats in their phony Florida Burka case (currently being appealed by the ACLU!).

Every time prayer is removed from a public building or school it creates a vacuum. Each day we read the news and we see what is filling all these vacuums in our schools. You remove God from our schools and something has got to replace Him. And that "something" is His adversary.

The State. His greatest adversary.

The American Civil Liberties Union sued in 1999 on behalf of a Peebles resident who objected to the display.

The United States has become a Tyranny of the Minority. Any minority that is offended by some minor irritation can sue the government for redress and impose their will on the majority.

> You remove God from our schools and something has got to replace Him.

The correct solution is to remove government from schools.

Earlier, dozens of protesters locked arms and knelt in prayer to hinder workers

These tactics only work on a benevelent power. Not the fascist thugs that run the ACLU.

Good observation, Crusader

The filth at the ACLU is working overtime, I see.

I absolutely despise the ACLU. Filthy, vicious, leftist vermin, all of them. I despise them to the depths of my soul.

I can't say anymore, because anything I say beyond that would only have the cops knocking at my door...

[Im Your Huckleberry]

Absolutely right.

So, the question is, what does the majority do about it?

If I were the kids, here's what I would do:

I would get t-shirts printed up with the monument on it - or just the "Ten Commandments" on them - and then I would have the kids go to work selling them, far and wide - all over town.

The kids could wear them to school every day, surrounding the little athiest vermin in the school so that they have to read them and see them every day - not just in front of the school, now, but in class (I mean, after all, it's free speech, right?) too.

Imagine the shock on the little athiest vermin if they had to encounter the "monuments" (or commandments) on t-shirts everywhere they went around town. In the grocery store, at the movie theater, at the ice cream parlor, in the mall...

I think there's an idea there.

Would teach the filthy, lowlife, leftist vermin at the ACLU a lesson in free speech, too.

This is why Home Schooling is on the rise.

My kid is either going to be home schooled, or going to private school. The pathetic public school system is never getting its hands on my child. Never. I wouldn't even think it.

Is this an anti-Christian move or is it a pre-emptive strategy to keep anticipated Islamic/other religious material out of our schools? If Christian material is allowed, then there will be similar demands by other religions.

It's simple: There is a war going on which is unseen yet reflected in the world's politics.

Quickly we need settle once and for all the Ten Commandments and the Bill of Rights came from the exact same Source, for the lines are drawn...
