The ANC [American News Commentary] reported in its September 21, 2011 issue that the ACLU is defending the right of Muslims to exercise prayer in public schools in San Diego… Really?
Is that a change of heart or the expression of a cowardly and terrified heart? It is most likely the latter. Let me explain.
Over the last 40 years or so, the ACLU has terrified many school boards, school administrators, and school children by threatening to drag them into court if they pray in public.
A few years ago, they terrified many coaches and sporting event coordinators by warning them that if they dare pray in public, the ACLU would bring about the full weight of their false interpretation of the Establishment Clause.
For many years, they have sent their emissaries across the land, “Gestapo-like,” checking out every small city council, lest they open their meeting with prayer.
But now they are coming out of their closets and are supporting Muslim students praying in public schools.
If you think that this defies every aspect of human logic, you would be right.
Fear is a powerful factor – fear devastates logical thinking, fear decimates consistency and their support for Islamic prayer in public schools in San Diego is a clear indication of that fear. They know all too well what will happen to them if they exercise their clever maneuvers on Muslims. They will not see the love and forgiveness they have received from Christians. Rather, they will see the end of the sword.
Surprise, surprise when Kevin Keenan, the spokesperson for the ACLU in San Diego, explained his enthusiastic support for Muslims praying in public schools, he said: “Performing these prayers is widely recognized as one of the five essential pillars of Islam.” Really?
Have they not heard, do they not know that Christians and Jews are also exhorted to pray?
Have they not heard, do they not know that for Christians, prayer is a life-line to their Savior, the God of the universe?
Have they not heard, do they not know that the prophet Daniel was thrown into the den of lions because he would not stop praying to the God of Heaven?
Have they not heard, do they not know that for Christians prayer is the foremost expression of their desire to commit themselves, their schools, their sporting events, and their public meetings to the Lord God Almighty?
Can one hope that appealing to the ACLU to be fair and just and not single out Christians, who are loving and forgiving, will make a difference? Meanwhile, they cower when it comes to Muslims, who may talk with the sword.
Can one appeal to them to see the light before it is too late for them as “infidels”—the first in line to face the sword under the Sharia?
Can one appeal to them to exercise even the most basic of human logic, let alone review history and truth?
One can hope.
ACLU -Anti Christian Liberal Union
It never was about separation of church and state. It was always about silencing Christians.
The same as PETA picking on fur wearing old ladies but ignoring leather wearing bikers.
We need to remember that the ACLU was started by a communist and believes in the destruction of the United States. They remain that today. Just allowing muslims to do this, divides the country. That is their goal.
Exactlly.
Exactly right. They know that Christianity is the only thing standing between them and the uber-state.
Ther is no such ting as an uber-state as depicted in their visions. They are so blinded by ideology they are blind to the obvious that our society is the library of their freedom to be uber-stupid.
Worse than that is their blindness to what Sharia will do to their uber-unreligious doctrines.

It was NEVER about separation of Church and State - it was always AND ONLY hatred of Christians and Jews.
Eff you ACLU - Eff you for eternity.
This is the same ACLU that waged a decades long jihad to remove all traces of the 10 commandments from all municipal grounds.
Of course there is; it exists in Cuba, Venezuela and N Korea.

exactly, for years we heard separation and yet I have never seen that wrote in our constitution because it is not there.
However it is here.

For years the ACLU has been bullying school districts into not allowing a Christmas concert, an Easter hunt, don’;t say Christmas, Om my you will hurt someone they say but now muslims get to pray, have rooms put aside , have times during the day put aside, have foot bath’s in colleges, etc
THIS IS FIN B/S I am sick and tired of these bullies and our pro homosexual pro cross dressing media who will not report on certain issues as they know it hurts their liberal cause
Pretty much covers it. All else is superfluous.
Beat me to it!
They’re just another outfit seeking to destroy America.
You would have to admit even those are not good enough because they are failing. The reality is that nobody has done it right in their eyes and only they have the magic beans to bring it about.
But an excellent opportunity for the Chrisians and Jews to widen the breach in the wall, and shove on through. Prayer for nobody or prayer for all!
Shame on us for allowing the Muslims the honor of taking the the initiative.
Mainly Christians.
FWIW, here is the story from the ACLU’s perspective:

As an extra treat there is a nice slam of Bush embedded there.
LOL.
So does this mean the Christians also need to join in the action on the side of the ACLU and ask for their right to be allowed to pray in school also.
