Is the National Day of Prayer Constitutional?

Absolutely!  Check out the ADF’s statement regarding the it.  This Freedom From Religion agenda is just ridiculous.  Filing suit because you may see someone pray or see a cross is just crazy.  Everyone’s freedom is under attack from this agenda that even has “Freedom” in its name.

Bullying in our schools.

It used to be that bullying in schools had to do with bigger kids picking on smaller ones.  While that still goes on, a bigger bully has slowly crept into our schools.  Groups like the ACLU have been making strides to get deeper and deeper into our schools in the name of liberty.  However, what they have actually done is turned our school systems into censorship boards for religious speech.  Here’s a good article that discusses this point further.

Recently, I met with a group of Christians dealing with this issue.  The ACLU filed suit over a student praying and Bibles being passed out at schoolsOh the humanity!! Now with all that goes on in kids lives, is this what they think they should put their time and effort into?  Ridiculous!  Anyway, the result of that case now has the school system scared to allow the students and teachers to have their constitutionally protected free speech.  Why?  Not because the school actually agrees with the ACLU, but because they are scared of them.

What do we do with bullies?  We stand up to them.  Groups like the ADF, Liberty Counsel and the ACLJ do it all the time.  Don’t fear the ACLU, if you have an issue like this get a God fearing attorney to stand with you (yes, they really do exist)!

See you at the pole!

It’s funny to me that there are those who want us, the tax paying public, to pay for public schools, whether we use them or not, but then when we want to pray over what we’ve paid for, they get all in a fuss.  Here’s the latest article in the Tennessean regarding the Wilson County, Tennessee “See You at the Pole” case.  Nate Kellum is the Alliance Defense Fund attorney who is heading up the case.  Nate’s a great guy and I’m proud of the fact that he gets to take on the American Civil Liberties Union, who has apparently decided to take on the mantle of the “Antichrist”.

Freedom of Speech

Recently, there has been a phenomena of Tea Party rallies opposed to President Obama’s unprecedented tax increases.  Many local governments are trying to either shut these down or hinder them.  This seems strange to me.  The Freedom of Speech rights that Americans have under the 1st Amendment makes us the envy of the world.

Unfortunately, it appears in our current, society, which is obsessed with political correctness, everyone is free to talk about global warming, homosexuality and the legalization of drugs. But when we talk about our growing and ever oppressive tax burden, we’re shunned and silenced.

Don’t these people study history?  Don’t they understand that its THIS ISSUE that drove the wedge between the colonial states and England?  This country was born out of the need of freedom, primarily TAX FREEDOM.

I would love to try one of these cases where either the government tries to silence someone on this issue or tries to bring criminal charges for it.  Bring it on!
