August 23, 201115 yr I say you people are the false teachers Jesus warns us about and if you do believe in God then you would never agree to something like this, sometimes our laws need not apply, It is ones like you who go along with the atheist and government and not with God. The right decision was not made. This is one reason we have so many freaks walking around all tattoed up and rings hanging on every piece of skin they have. You guys might as well be aruging with the wall. I think these posts say all that needs to be said of mountain ref.
August 23, 201115 yr It is ones like you who go along with the atheist and government and not with God. The right decision was not made.So, someone disagrees with you, and you compare them to atheist? Very immature! Also, why mislead people with your thread title? False info to attempt to get people to see your point?
August 23, 201115 yr I think God cares if his flock isnt allowed to pray and i think a person will have to answer a question God may have when God ask why did you not support prayer and instead side with the non-believer. This is one reason we have so many freaks walking around all tattoed up and rings hanging on every piece of skin they have. Soooo, people who are "all tattoed up" and have rings hanging on every piece of skin are against God and or atheist?
August 23, 201115 yr I do agree with not having to be seen, but I also dont agree with being able to publicly acknowledge God either. When you punish 99% of the people who want something becasue of one person, what does that teach.Matthew 6:1, “Beware of practicing your righteousness before other people in order to be seen by them, for then you will have no reward from your Father who is in heaven.
August 23, 201115 yr Author Soooo, people who are "all tattoed up" and have rings hanging on every piece of skin are against God and or atheist? Show me where I said they were atheist or against God.

False info to attempt to get people to see your point? It did keep Bell Co from pregame prayer, did you ever think they may be on the field when it happens.
August 23, 201115 yr Author How I love to read how everyone wants prayer, but how you all keep saying we should do it in private. So much for being a good witness and spreading the word. I love also how you try to sugarcoat it all and make it seem like it is ok to not publically acknowledge God and how it isnt right to go against the poor atheist who dont believe.
August 23, 201115 yr It did keep Bell Co from pregame prayer, did you ever think they may be on the field when it happens. Teams pray on the field all the time.
August 23, 201115 yr What is the difference between the pastor-led prayer by Rick Warren at the 2009 Presidential inauguration & the prayer in the Bell County instance? Why is it constitutional at the first government-sponsored event & unconstitutional at the other government-sponsored event?

Why is it constitutional at the first government-sponsored event & unconstitutional at the other government-sponsored event? There actually was a lawsuit filed over it but I don't know what became of it. The president's inauguration committee had more money to fight a lawsuit than Bell Co Schools.

August 23, 201115 yr There actually was a lawsuit filed over it but I don't know what became of it. The president's inauguration committee had more money to fight a lawsuit than Bell Co Schools. I'm sure that's true. But legally speaking, what is the difference between the two? Both prayers pastor-led. Both prayers at events sponsored by government (political & public school). Both prayers, I assume, prayed in the name of Jesus (I know Warren's was). Why is one deemed okay & the other one not?
August 23, 201115 yr Author same as illegal immigrants not being sent back, if you are illegal then you are illegal, law says send them back. if one can pray, then why cant all.
August 23, 201115 yr The perfect solution that would stand up in court is to have a moment of silence. Anyone who wants to can then pray and those who don't can contemplate. Virginia schools begin each day with a minute of silence. Or as a teacher friend of mine calls it: "The minute of 'Shut-UP'" (Because he is contantly telling the kids to shut up during that minute)
