Schools in Jasper had to fight this year for "Christmas break" as some certain officials thought they would be cute and complain about how Christmas is a Christian holiday and it violates the interest of non-Christians to call it such. They reasoned that it should either be called some sort of term break or "holiday break" or do away with it at all.
How's THAT for separation of church and state?

And on a seemingly unrelated note--however much more related than meets the eye at first glance--some liberal *@$#!%^!!! (for lack of a better term) are saying that Abstinance should not be taught as a form of safe sex in school because abstinance is a "religious-based teaching" and should not be allowed to permeate the school curriculum any longer. *Religious folk have a tendancy to push their way into the school systems and force their oppinions into the classrooms...this detremental message of abstinance has to be stopped!* Was the jest of what the spokesperson had to say... It is in the best interest of our country that church and state remain separate.

Is it time to get involved? Anybody understand what I'm sayin? How can we chant one nation under God and hold in our hands every day the words "In God We Trust"? and....oh, you get my point (stepping off of my soapbox now...) Just had to get that off my chest...

You're on a warpath!

I say we contact our schoolboards to voice our opinion. That's the only way we'll be heard. Being the "silent majority" moral or otherwise, will get us nothing. I will find out how we can contact major school board/ members this week.

Well you dont hafta worry bout any of that garbage at PN-G! The school board would never go for any of those ridiculous arguments! (I know my mom's the president ) And I actually talked to her bout some of this stuff last night! but yeah..I personally think that people are ssoo worried bout the whole "separation of church and state" thing and worried they're kids might actually pick up a couple morals and values at school they're makin dumb arguments that are really hurtin them!
