ACLU Trying to Ban Bowing Head During Prayer

Loading

Well, the Christian hating commie bastards are at it again:

The
issue of teachers and coaches praying — or appearing to pray — in front
of students is being hashed out in one New Jersey high school, which is
trying to ban its football coach from bowing his head and kneeling
while his players pray before games.

The U.S. Court of Appeals for the 3rd Circuit heard arguments in the case earlier this month.

“All
he wants to do is bow his head in the background,” said John Whitehead,
president of the Rutherford Institute, a group acting as co-counsel for
coach Marcus Borden. “There’s a mentality out there among school
officials that if it even hints of religion, it’s got to go.”

While
there are “clear guidelines” for student-initiated prayer in school
that grant students at least “minimal” rights, teachers “are being told
they really don’t have religious freedom,” Mr. Whitehead said.

The
case stems from an October 2005 policy at East Brunswick High School
prohibiting any school representative from participating in
student-initiated prayer.

The high school’s football players
have been praying before games for more than 25 years, and the coach
wants to continue to bow his head and kneel with them, according to the
Rutherford Institute. School officials don’t dispute that student
athletes have the constitutionally protected right to pray, but they
say coaches do not, because they are public employees, the institute
said.

A U.S. District Court ruled in favor of the coach in
July, but that was challenged by the school and the American Civil
Liberties Union (ACLU).

It is quite sad that so many have
fallen for the lies of groups like the ACLU. It is sad that an
organization claiming to protect our liberties is attacking them.

Moonbattery at its best:

Although
totalitarian moonbats have not yet been able to take away the right of
players to pray, coaches are alleged to be public officials not
entitled to the freedom of religion guaranteed by the First Amendment.
According to the ACLU of New Jersey, Borden’s silent show of respect
for God fosters a “destructive environment.” This satanic organization
has taken the case to the Third Circuit Court of Appeals.

Wars have been fought over far less than what the ACLU is doing to this country.

From Stop the ACLU

If
the ACLU really gave a damn about the Separation of Church and State,
(They Don’t) and if the Separation of Church and State was actually
part of the Constitution, (It Isn’t) one might expect the ACLU to go
after Muslims and their rights.

But the ACLU won’t, because
they are Christian hating cowards. By selectively attacking one group,
and ignoring others, the ACLU has shown themselves to be nothing but
slimeballs and cowards. What else would you expect from a group that
defends terrorists and child pornographers but attacks Christianity at
any chance it can get.

Why?

“Communism is the Goal.”

Roger Nash Baldwin
Founder of the ACLU

I hope someone is keeping a list of the members of the American Communist League United (ACLU) and all of they’re suppporters. Not many years in the future there will be mass hangings across this country. Just hope you aren’t related to one of these slime balls.

That probably is not the appropriate thing to say. Let the left talk about how they want to silence anyone who dissagrees with them, disrupt conservative events on colleges, assault US Soldiers (and actually DO it), violently overthrow the government, and openly side with any dictator/terrorist/thug who wants the USA destroyed.

Let’s not bring the conservatives down to their level. We already know the ACLU is a marxist organization committed to only pushing parts of “civil rights’ (as they define them) when it is politically advantagous to the left. The ACLU could give a rat’s rear about the Constitution or true freedom. Let the left continue to hyperventalate and push their more radical members into doing atrocities. The more rational among them should realize what is goin on and discover that it is the ideology of socialism and its alliance with fundementalist Islam which is a threat, not conservatism.

The ACLU also has to see the double standards they are continually pulling but their useful idiot supporters could care less. There is also another aspect. Christians do not behead those who insult Christianity. Jewish people do not homicide bomb people who insult them. Muslims do both and do it often for ANY and EVERY percieved slight. The only other type of “religious” organization which behaves the way Islam does are cults. It may be out of fear from reprisals that the “couragous” ACLU does not even whimper when Muslims impose Shairia laws in cities or universities and governments install taxpayer funded footbaths for Muslims and Muslims only.

It does not take courage to stand up to people who will do nothing to you (Christians/Jews/Hindus). It takes courage to stand up to Global Islam and its dreams of a world caliphate who will kill you for even daring to question them. The left and ACLU do not possess courage, nor convictions.

I am not saying this is a “either/or” thing for the ACLU and the left in general. I believe it is a “they dispise Christians and Jews AND fear the Muslims too much to say anything”.
