| I should make something a little clearer here. In the "bible belt" this is much more of an issue than in most other parts of the country. I have been a staunch supporter of keeping religion and GOD out of public schools. This particular post made by Chuck has been used ad nauseam by those who support CHRISTIAN prayer and religion in public schools. MY reading of it is obviously tainted by my real life experiences down here in the south. I am not capable of reading it at face value or taking it lightly because I have seen it and heard it used so much AS propaganda. That is my problem and I have no judgement directed toward anyone. I do think, however, that two of us in the South chimed in because we are OVER exposed to this issue and have been over exposed to the original post and it's "misuse". I am sorry if some of you took my tone as a personal attack. No one person was in my mind when I made my posts. |
