Tenn. Students Keep Up Prayer at School Despite Ban

Tennessee athletes, students and community members have been rallying together in prayer despite the efforts of Freedom from Religion Foundation and the Hamilton County superintendent to shut down prayer before football games and during graduation.

Soddy Daisy High School students and a crowd of community members met in Veteran’s Park Wednesday to pray about recent orders to eliminate prayer at school functions. “We should have the right to be able to pray. It’s a freedom of religion, freedom of speech. I mean its jus wrong,” Senior Kayla Woolford told news crew present at the rally.

Hamilton County Superintendent Jim Scales ordered all county principals that prayer at school events was unconstitutional after receiving a letter from the FFRF denouncing loud speaker prayers at school events.

You can pray all you want at school. Just don't formally organize it and make those who don't want to pray participate.

But Vision to America's goal is get everyone under the Christian faith umbrella. From their website:

"Vision to America exists to help America return to our Founding Father's vision for a Christian Republic. It is our Vision to see Americans once again recognize that we are endowed by our Creator with certain unalienable rights and that this Creator is the God of the Bible."

They're not happy until you're "saved" and proclaim your faith in Jesus Christ.

Can we apply the same to liberal philosophy and thoughts in schools too?

Being liberal is not a religion. You cons claim it's a disease, remember? So, to answer your question, no.

Disease we would like not to participate in. You are quite right, it's not a religion - but very well organized.

Gauging the success of the Dems in the last two years, I would disagree that they are well organized.
