But what was takin out of school was God.
If God is omnipresent, then He was not taken out of the schools.

Re: If you had kids, you would know
Listen everyone, stop all your jumping up and down. I live out here in the real world, and I can see clearly what the effect of taking prayer out of school has done. dare to mention God, in a positive way, in school now, and you will see. I am not going to get into a back and forth bullshit conversation about it. IT is what it is.

Re: To clear things up a bit...
Have you read the story about my kids school? Is one example.
Not only are they trying to take God out of country, they are trying to take Christ, ou tof Christmas.

I'm glad you provided the link. Having read the particular item, I can see that it has to do with a government body following the requirements of the establishment clause of the first amendment. That government body is falsely accused of taking Christ out of Christmas.
Why is it that some Christians feel compelled to misrepresent in this way? Why are they telling lies, yet claiming their religion is the source of morality?

Re: To clear things up a bit...
The Left doesn’t want us to worship God and follow His commandments, but they would like us to worship the gods of ultra-tolerance on the graven altar of moral relativism.
That is false, and totally dishonest. The majority of those on the left are Christians. What they don't want, is to have the government dictate how you should worship.
Now how about you stop these dishonest assertions.

Re: To clear things up a bit...
By removing God from our society, and our history?
Nobody is removing God from our society, or from our history.
You have been listening to far too much right wing propoganda, and you have been believing it without checking.

Re: To clear things up a bit...
The conservative athiests you know, wish to impose moral relativism on the country?
In my experience, the people who are trying hardest to impose their relative morality on society are fundamentalist Christians.
