Tennessee high school principal's remarks about prayer

Postby x89 » Sat Oct 30, 2010 9:39 am

This is a statement that was read over the PA system at the football
game a Roane County High School Kingston,
Tennessee, by school Principal, Jody McLeod.

"It has always been the custom at Roane County High School football
games, to
say a prayer and play the National Anthem, to honor God and Country."

Due to a recent ruling by the Supreme Court, I am told that saying a
Prayer
is a violation of Federal Case Law. As I understand the law at this
time, I can
use this public facility to approve of sexual perversion and call it "an
alternate
life style," and if someone is offended, that's OK.

I can use it to condone sexual promiscuity, by dispensing condoms and
calling
it "safe sex." If someone is offended, that's OK.

I can even use this public facility to present the merits of killing an
unborn
baby as a "viable! means of birth control." If someone is offended, no
problem...

I can designate a school day as "Earth Day" and involve students in
activities
to worship religiously and praise the goddess "Mother Earth" and call it
"ecology.."

I can use literature, videos and presentations in the classroom that
depicts
people with strong, traditional Christian convictions as "simple minded"
and "ignorant"
and call it "enlightenment.."

However, if anyone uses this facility to honor GOD and to ask HIM to
Bless this
event with safety and good sportsmanship, then Federal Case Law is
violated.

This appears to be inconsistent at best, and at worst, diabolical.
Apparently,
we are to be tolerant of everything and anyone, except GOD and HIS
Commandments.

Nevertheless, as a school principal, I frequently ask staff and students
to
abide by rules with which they do not necessarily agree. For me to do
otherwise
would be inconsistent at best, and at worst, hypocritical...

I suffer from that affliction enough unintentionally. I certainly do not
need to add an intentional transgression.

For this reason, I shall "Render unto Caesar that which is Caesar's,"
and refrain
from praying at this time.

"However, if you feel inspired to honor, praise and thank GOD and ask
HIM, in the name of JESUS,
to Bless this event, please feel free to do so.. As far as I know,
that's not against the law----yet."

One by one, the people in the stands bowed their heads, held hands with
one
another and began to pray.

They prayed in the stands. They prayed in the team huddles. They prayed
at the
concession stand and they prayed in the Announcer's Box!

The only place they didn't pray was in the Supreme Court of the United
States of America
- the Seat of "Justice" in the "one nation, under GOD."

Somehow, Kingston, Tennessee remembered what so many have forgotten. We
are given
the Freedom OF Religion, not the Freedom FROM Religion. Praise GOD that
HIS remnant remains!

JESUS said, "If you are ashamed of ME before men, then I will be ashamed
of you before MY FATHER.."

If you are not ashamed, pass this on.

I'm not one bit ashamed to pass this on!........http://www.truthorfiction.com/rumors/j/jodymccloud.htm

That's why we need to get out to vote. Regardless of who you support, it is the right and duty of every American to cast their vote. I feel better now.
