A GODLY MAN. A GODLY COMMUNITY.

It is absolutely incredible what is happening in America .

At a Tennessee Football Game---not a joke   Christianity is now the

 target of persecution...  THIS IS AS GOOD AS IT GETS! GOD BLESS

 EVERYONE WHO READS THIS AND PASSES IT ON.

 I FIND IT INTERESTING THAT A HIGH SCHOOL PRINCIPAL CAN

 SEE THE PROBLEM, BUT OUR SOCIETY CANNOT.

 Tennessee Football 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 McLeod

 "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 life style," 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 depicts

 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.

 I'm not one bit ashamed to pass this on, Are you?
