Okay, this is stupid. This blatantly violates separation of church and state. You can't use government to mandate prayer.
Yes, I'm an atheist, but I support Christians having a fair shake. The crazy ass things these Marxist do needs to be stopped. This FL law isn't how to stop it.
STEP ONE - Marxism is a religion. Its a theocratic system of government in which nothing is held higher than the state. The state IS GOD!!! Thus they are NOT atheists. They have a god... the state... the party.
STEP TWO -- Reread step one and fully understand it because once you grasp that step two is obvious. Ban Marxism and Islam both. Theocracies BY DEFAULT are incompatible with the constitution of the USA. The constitution needs to be amended to ban both of them explicitly so they can not use our own 1st amendment against us.
COLLEGES ARE NOT PLACES OF LEARNING ANY MORE!!! THEY ARE MARXISTS TEMPLES AND CHURCHES!!!
Understand now?
You do realize separation of church and state for one, is no where in the constitution, it was from an 1802 letter that Jefferson wrote to the Danbury baptist association. And two, it was never to keep God out of government, but to prevent the government from endorsing a federal church like the Roman Catholics.
They've been pushing that separation of church and state my whole life. After reading the constitution, I now see that the founding fathers wanted us to freely exercise our religion. It feels like the government sometimes wants to do quite the opposite and stamp it out. Look at the little girl that wore the, "Jesus loves me" mask.
When I was in fifth grade, our teacher would have us line up before going to lunch. Then she would let someone say a prayer before heading out. I always looked forward to that. I wanted to be chosen. :) It was just a simple, God is good, God is great, thank you for this food we eat.
Lovin this ☝?
Exactly... but by writing a law that mandates prayer in a public school you are doing exactly that... you are saying that the government supports Christian prayer. Its the wrong way to deal with the problem.
The short answer is that questions like the ten commandments being in the courthouse or prayer in the school should always be left up to the local people to decide for themselves. If a majority of that county votes in a referendum to leave the ten commandments up or have prayer in the schools then you violate nothing. THE GOVERNMENT didn't decide jack shit... THE PEOPLE DID. When you expand it out to the whole state and make it a law voted on by a state legislature that is government playing favorites one religion over another. That is exactly what they 1st was designed to stop.
Hell, forget the voters in that county voting on whether there is prayer in a school. HAVE THE DAM STUDENTS VOTE ON IT! Its their school. THAT should be the standard. The students decide. Its a good lesson in self governance. Every year first thing they have a vote... student body pres etc etc.. and are we praying or not... etc.
I've written other posts about this and don't really have time to rewrite it all. This is classic curing a symptom not the disease. These Marxists are banning Christians from praying in school and using the 1st as a club to do it. You shouldn't need to make this law. You should recognize that Marxists removing prayer violates the 1st because it is Marxism installing itself as the state religion... which violates the 1st.
I agree with most of that except the part about letting kids decide. Letting kids decide too many things that should be a parents decision have made too many entitled brats in this world. Most kids don’t know what’s good for them and need direction. They crave being led and most don’t even know it. They need structure and direction in their lives and not left to decide things for themselves. Getting that direction and instruction from moral adults in the first place is what sets them up for success later in life. Kids left to do and decide whatever the hell they want when young grow up to be adults with no direction or grounding in their lives. Many turn to crime, drugs, depression, etc because of this. We need moms and dads being leaders in the home and parents first, not friends with their kids first.
To be clear I'm talking about high school mostly. Young children yes it should be more about the parents. At high school age it builds kids up to give them these sorts of choices. It teaches them responsibility and empowers them. Forcing them to do what idiotic adults want is what cause them to rebel and turn to drugs etc etc.
This also stamps out one of the lefts biggest weapons that is the REAL problem. Everyone doesn't always get a dam trophy. There are winners and losers. Don't like it tough shit that's reality. Make a better argument next time and maybe you win.
I don’t think prayer or a period of reflection is the root of the issue. I think GOVERNMENT PUBLIC SCHOOLING is the problem. When we call schools part of the state...there Ya go. But when state=school we got a problem fren.
I agree but now add to that the hard truth that Marxism views all schools as their churches. They want everyone indoctrinated into the church of Marxism whether its a public or private school doesn't matter. Private schools are just more difficult but not impossible to infiltrate. Add in to the equation that most certified teachers are trained at a Marxist university(temple)... So even in a private school Marxists nuns are teaching your children.
Public schools are just another symptom. Still not curing the disease. Getting rid of public schools could be a good step though if done right.
Hey good points, but first I suggest you read the actual bill and also read the article not just the headline from the Associate Press — you know, the AP that is owned by a certain ultra elite cabal family.
Once done going through the content, then come back here and let’s continue this line of reasoning and discuss.
I didn't see the article linked. And it doesn't matter. Even if this law has some layers to it where it doesn't force kids to pray blah blah... then that just means its a hollow do nothing bill purely for show. The things I'm talking about would actually have some teeth to it and would solve real problems. It wouldn't some fake do nothing bill that just gets struck down by a liberal judge giving the Marxist yet another win.
I finally exhaled upon reading your correct response.
A moment of silence is not endorsing any faith. It is a break in the busy day for reflection. You can reflect in whatever way suits you. You can spend the time counting to 100 if that is what you want to do with it.
No its not "hurting anyone", and a school is more than welcome to do so of their own accord if the students agree to it. HAVING THE GOVERNMENT MANDATE A MOMENT OF SILENCE IS NOT THE WAY TO DO THIS!!!
Okay... I'm Muslim... I'd like the government to mandate a call to prayer like they do in the middle east. Same thing. Doesn't really hurt anyone. Christian get their silence I want my chanting.
Look I'm on your side, but there is a right and wrong way to solve problems like this. This is NOT the way.
The way is to get rid of state-run schooling.
Nobody in the scenario is forcing children to pray. It's for the one's who want it and the other children can daydream or be a kid.
So I'm an atheist. What am I supposed to do while everyone else prays?
You are using the power of government to mandate a religious activity. I get that its partly defensive because the Marxist are trying to stop you from practicing your religion. This isn't not the way to fix the problem. Read my other posts.
The real problem is that the schools are part of the state.
