A High School Football Game That Went Too Far!

This is a statement that was read over the PA system at the football game at 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 lifestyle," 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."

BWT........the team got their ass kicked 56-3 by the North Valley Lil Devils ( Ok . I added that in there but boy did it sound funny at the time I wrote it)!!

This red neck Principal should have lost his job! When will these Jesus freaks ever learn that no one it preventing them to pray. Just leave it out of the school. If you feel that fucking passionate about preying before every little thing you do. Work or go to a Christian school! Like Muslim children go to a Muslim School and Jewish kids go to a Hebrew school. These families pay to have their religion as a part of their child's curriculum. Public school is just that......PUBLIC! Which means no religion is better or a priority on campus. informing students on Gay sex and sexual orientation is only customary. You a a parent have the right not to have you child involved in such activities in school.

Take more responsibility for your fucking kid! but the problem is that these Jesus freaks want to control every aspect of your life! They don't care if the are violating your infringement or rights protected under the constitution! And will treat you like shit if you don't join in on their religious program!

We sit here and complain about how some Muslim schools teach only the idea of the Koran and punish those who are Christian. We are doing the same fucking thing here! You can't press your fucking ideas on a person who religious beliefs are different from your own?! And if this fucking moron is a Principal. How fucking unprofessional was this speech?! None of these whack ass policies are being practice in school to the way he explained it! How ridiculous!

This is the problem with this fucking country today! To many Jesus freaks abusing the bible to control people! Just because you hold a bible in your hand and pray at school makes you one step closer to God than the person who goes to church and prey once in a while! And the list of hypocrites who call themselves " God loving people" but yet turn around and have gay sex in bathroom stalls, hire gay male escorts, or even kill their husbands because he asked them to have kinky sex is growing by the day!

People! Let's leave religion in our homes, church, and places of worship. Not forcing it on others who pay taxes and who share the same public institutions we all do! No one has and should have that right! BTW! It wouldn't hurt to get a copy of the constitution and read it once in a while!

I'm outta here!
