Got this in emal from Lambert this morning.

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 McLoud.

"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
depict 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."

If you are not ashamed, pass this on or make your choice and
delete
it.
