School Officials could be Jailed for Prayer
Posted on 28. Aug, 2009 by admin in CEAI
Thanks to Matt Staver and his Liberty Counsel team for defending the principal and AD. The Principal and AD could face losing their jobs, fines, and even jail time for praying at a school function where NO students were present.
The ACLU filed suit against the Santa Rosa School District stating that they were too religious or Christian. After trying to defend itself to the cost of $250,000.00, the school district signed a consent decree stating that all school officials would be banned from praying or reading religious materials before, during, or after school. This decree also states that educators must review all student work and remove any religious material before the material is presented to the class.
This consent decree clearly violates the First Amendment rights of students and teachers; as a result, the Liberty Counsel and Christian Educators Association International have united together to file suit to stop these violations of our First Amendment.
What do you think about this case?

Bill, This is another example of where our culture is heading. Depending on where one lives, there is either freedom of religious expression or those in postions of authority suppress that freedom. Folks who are positioned firmly in the "light" look at something like a prayer over a meal and say that it is good and right. Those positioned firmly in the "dark" look at the same prayer and call it evil. The people in America are still in charge, the question is where are they standing, voting, and accepting, the light or the dark?
