Really...at a voluntary meeting? These school administrator idiots are running the roost. There’s no free speech in the “land of the free”. What a joke we’re permitting. We don’t have to put up with this.

We all know that a prayer rug, LGBT, American flag burning party would’ve been “free speech”, “freedom of religion” and creative thinking.

Religion is being outlawed. What the heck is going on. I have to fund abortions, love a fag, etc etc.

People's lives ruined by laws...that's not what the law was intended to do. Someone that won't bake a cake for a fag weddinNOT a criminal. It's absurd.

I guess Americans are making their displeasure known.

he's relying on his faith to get him through

Better idea: get a lawyer and sue for wrongful termination. Become rich.

At the rate things are devolving, in 10 years this type of offense will get you a death sentence. The liberals think that things will lurch a little bit to the left and then stop moving and they will be happy, not understanding that there is no stopping the social juggernaut until we are living under communism.

Just a couple charts showing what happened when removed God from our schools.

We told God he wasn't wanted in the education process of our children. God said ok, then He turned away from our children.

Besides the charts below, think also of the pictures we see of all the colorful rainbow children that have outed themselves and have decided that they are gay. Aren't they beautiful? sarc-off

28. Eliminate prayer or any phase of religious expression in the schools on the ground that it violates the principle of “separation of church and state.”

The war on Christianity has come to the Bible Belt. I can tell you we are not happy about it.

I could not believe that the people would elect a bastard like Obama to lead them, either. So, I guess, realty is what it is.

“Because this is a Christian community and I want my daughter to pray,” said another parent.
Dr. Lehr who did not want to speak on camera said he had his annual evaluation two days later with the county's school superintendent. He says at that meeting, Superintendent Carol Lane put him on indefinite administrative leave for the remainder of his contract which expires in June for leading prayers at the FCA meeting.

“Because this is a LGBLTPDQRTFM community and I want my daughter to follow liberal orthodoxy,” said another parent.
Dr. Lehr who was offered a 6-figure book deal said he had his annual evaluation two days later with the county's school superintendent. He says at that meeting, Superintendent Carol Lane praised him for coming out at the FCA meeting.

The solution is to begin privatizing the delivery of K-12 schooling with the ultimate goal ( most likely not completely achievable) of “Complete Separation of School and State”.

There is no possible way for the government school to resolve this issue in a religiously neutral manner. **Any** decision made will favor one religious worldview ( godless or God-centered) and undermine the deeply held beliefs of the other. Any decision made that favors one worldview ( godless or God-centered) will have NON-neutral content and NON-neutral consequences for all the children who will be influenced by the school's example.

Fundamentally forced tax-funded schooling and forced attendance at government schools violates every principle of the First Amendment ( speech, press, assembly, and free exercise of religion). Government schools are a freedom of conscience abomination for all who are forced to attend and all who are forced to pay for it.

Fundamentally, it is impossible to have a religiously, culturally, and politically neutral education. Such a state of neutrality can not exist in the mind of any sentient human.

In fact, most of what government does has some non-neutral cultural, religious, and political content and consequences. It is for this reason government should be as limited in scope as possible and as locally controlled as possible. A good rule is to apply is if the service or product can be found in any Yellow Pages then the government should not be doing it and if absolutely needed should be contracted out to private businesses.

Schools for newborns up to post-college graduate schools are found in the Yellow Pages. This means that government should get out of that business.

I graduated high school in 1976. My principal was an active ordained minister. He officiated my sister and brother in law's wedding and likely many more of his former students weddings. He had the respect of the students and staff and control of the school.

In grade school we had voluntary assemblies about once a month and a local preacher would come by and talk to the students. Morning Pledge, devotion, and The Lord's Prayer, was part of beginning the school day. I miss the nation of my youth.

I am trying to have sympathy for someone who toes the State’s line, who is paid to indoctrinate school children, then doesn’t like it when they run afoul of the same system.

The Left is moving very aggressively against outlawing Christianity.

I emailed the superintendent and this is her response:

Dear Ms. Creekmore,
All the information in the newspaper is not correct and relevant information used in my decision was omitted. We uphold the Constitution, The 1st Amendment, all federal, state laws, rules and regulations.

I believe in the Fellowship of Christian Athletes, and I donate every month in Honor of Coach Jeremy Williams. I have this club in both of my High Schools. I believe FCA develops good Christian morals. values, and ethics in our young people.

There is another side to this story but unfortunately my hands are tied since it is a personnel issue, and I can’t give specific details. Dr. Lehr has publicly stated one week before the meeting that his contract was not being renewed.

He was not fired nor banned from the campus.

Thank you

Sincerely,
Carol L. Lane
