Gee people, I remember when we had prayers in school and when the pledge to the flag was recited at the beginning of the school day and before any P.T.A. meetings or assemblies in school started. I remember talking about God and Jesus. and it wasn't that many years ago. and even then WOMEN HAD THE RIGHT TO VOTE!! We could wear any clothes we wanted to, as long as they weren't revealing. Yeah! I wore mini skirts that just covered my hips, but I wore underwear underneath. We sang Christmas songs, like: Away in a manager; Silent night, Holy night; O Holy Night; Do you hear what I hear?
And we had a heck of a lot more respect for our parents than most children have now.
And No, I didn't live during the Ice Age or the Civil War, but during Viet Nam and the roaring 60's.
Yeah, and chewing gum in school, you may have to sit in the principal's office til the end of the day, or the principal may give you some other form of punishment.
Kids then had more respect for most everything then. What has happened, they take God out of the schools and the whole country goes to heck!

honor, I hope it is not gone forever but it could be because honor is something taught. It can be felt but to be properly expressed it must be taught. I think it went out the door when divorce became prevalent and I am gonna be hated for saying this but truly all this started when women got to vote. I know that sounds so horrible but look at the string of things where it got started it all leads back to that. You are old enough tell me I am wrong. I would like to be wrong, really I would. If one does not honor their spouse then how are kids gonna ever see it. It is possible today to honor your spouse but it is so rare and being a counselor I am pretty aware of this missing link. Mad madeline showed us the way and a string of man haters have been ruling the roost for some time. The truly powerful have kept women out of their midst still pretty much but they will get there and then we will see if maybe ancient men had reason to keep them in check and I am suspecting perhaps there was a reason. I mostly watch and was a long time proponent of women being equal but after studying names and motives and how one gave birth to the next I am beginning to wonder if we may not all be in trouble.
The Bible did not tell us to breath cuz we did that or to eat cuz we did that but it was made a point for women to be respectful and I am wondering if that is not because it is not natural for them to be that way. I really hope I am wrong cuz this ship has long since sailed and I think we might be on the ride of our lives.
I would not put a young man in a room full of naked young women and expect him to act civil, and I am wondering if we put a woman in the seat of power if there might be a similar repercussion. Still given the chance I will vote for Hillery, no way can she do worse than what we have.

yet another tidbit to think of approximately. of all of the writings interior the bible... how plenty did Jesus write?? none. he wrote not something, it quite is all 2d hand money owed at appropriate. it quite is a narrative instructed and exceeded down or exceeded on. in lots of cases cases the small print become adorned and the guy takes on mythical staus. at one time there become a guy named paul bunyan. he become a huge lumberjack yet because of the fact the tale become exceeded alongside he grew to the ingredient now the place he's 10 feet tall and had super human feats. i'm not evaluating jesus to paul bunyan i'm in simple terms utilising bunyan as an occasion of how genuine human beings become mythical figures. Jesus become a super guy and sensible instructor/ actuality seeker he become not a deity strolling on water etc...

At home. Hopefully at the least. and Church classes.
The pubic schools are for theaching you what you need to know to learn about the physical world and what you need to learn to make a living. the three R's +.
Those days are past when we entered the industrial age. and need basic ideas on how material things work.so we can enter a field of work that we know something about.
Now it is back up to the indivual about things religious.in their spare time.

It took a back seat to progress and technology,but if the Evangelists keep getting involved with Politics,where they don't belong,you just might get your wish and be back in the good Ole' Days of burning people at the stake.

-why pledge to the flag if it mentions god --> to the atheists
-why have freedom of speech ff u can not talk about Jesus or god in school
-and why not believe in a supreme being(God)if the usa was founded by Christianity

1) at least your not pimping your lies about being jewish, when your obviously christian anymore.
2) Jesus worshipped as god, is idolotry.
3) moral issues have nothing to do with religion, it has to do with parents doing their job or not doing their job, that is teaching their children the things they should be taught, at home.
religion in schools belongs only at the parochial schools. why should non-christians have to listen to the christians's idolotry and polytheism?

Um, they replaced intolerance and oppression with freedom and knowledge
As for the little children, thay can pray all they want in school, it just has to be individual.

In do-do if we don't change our ways
SCRIPTURES TO CONSIDER
FOR THERE IS ONE GOD, AND ONE MEDIATOR BETWEEN GOD AND MEN, THE MAN CHRIST JESUS;
WHO GAVE HIMSELF A RANSOM FOR ALL, TO BE TESTIFIED IN DUE TIME-1 Tim 2:5,6.
WHOSOEVER DENIETH THE SON, THE SAME HATH NOT THE FATHER: (BUT) HE THAT ACKNOWLEDGETH THE SON HATH THE FATHER ALSO-1 Jn 2:23.
(For) HE THAT BELIEVETH ON THE SON OF GOD HATH THE WITNESS IN HIMSELF: HE THAT BELIEVETH NOT GOD HATH MADE HIM A LIAR; BECAUSE HE BELIEVETH NOT THE RECORD THAT GOD GAVE OF HIS SON.
AND THIS IS THE RECORD, THAT GOD HATH GIVEN TO US ETERNAL LIFE, AND THIS LIFE IS IN HIS SON.
HE THAT HATH THE SON HATH LIFE; AND HE THAT HATH NOT THE SON OF GOD HATH NOT LIFE-1 Jn 5:10-12.
AND WE KNOW THAT THE SON OF GOD IS COME, AND HATH GIVEN US AN UNDERSTANDING, THAT WE MAY KNOW HIM THAT IS TRUE, AND WE ARE IN HIM THAT IS TRUE, EVEN IN HIS SON JESUS CHRIST. THIS IS THE TRUE GOD, AND ETERNAL LIFE-1 Jn 5:20.
AND JESUS CAME AND SPAKE UNTO THEM, SAYING, ALL POWER (or authority) IS GIVEN UNTO ME IN HEAVEN AND IN EARTH-Mt 28:18.
THAT ALL MEN SHOULD HONOUR THE SON, EVEN AS THEY HONOUR THE FATHER. HE THAT HONOURETH NOT THE SON HONOURETH NOT THE FATHER WHICH HATH SENT HIM-Jn 5:23.
THERE IS ONE BODY, AND ONE SPIRIT, EVEN AS YE ARE CALLED IN ONE HOPE OF YOUR CALLING-Eph 4:4.
ALL THINGS ARE DELIVERED UNTO ME OF MY FATHER: AND NO MAN KNOWETH THE SON, BUT THE FATHER; NEITHER KNOWETH ANY MAN THE FATHER, SAVE THE SON, AND HE TO WHOMSOEVER THE SON (which is also the Word) WILL REVEAL HIM-Mt 11:27. The Son reveals Him. It may be said also, the Word reveals the Father.
NEITHER IS THERE SALVATION IN ANY OTHER: FOR THERE IS NONE OTHER NAME UNDER HEAVEN GIVEN AMONG MEN, WHEREBY WE MUST BE SAVED-Acts 4:12.
JESUS SAITH UNTO HIM, I AM THE WAY, THE TRUTH, AND THE LIFE: NO MAN COMETH UNTO THE FATHER, BUT BY ME-Jn 14:6.
(And) BEING JUSTIFIED FREELY BY HIS GRACE THROUGH THE REDEMPTION THAT IS IN CHRIST JESUS-Ro 3:24
