My opinion is if they don't allow Christian speaches, etc, why allow a different religious activity?

[Darth Cheney]

They really should allow a marching gay parade, pro-choice rally, and Muslim diversity speech in all graduation ceremonies.

[Freedom Forever]

Yeah PC was just suppose to shut down Christian speech. oops, unintended consequences anyone?

[pse1124]

Again the PC liberals are seperating people by race. It's stupid. One ceremony, one graduation. After all, they are all graduates, not whte graduates, and native graduates, and black graduates, and christian graduates...etc etc

I agree with the school board's decision. Hopefully everyone remembers this when my fellow Christians cry around about not being able to say a pray at every school event/government function.

Yeah especially with all that Christian dogma being rammed down the student's throat. Persecution much?

I think I heard war drums in the distant...

A victim group denied their victimization...shame, shame.

We didn't have to worry about that crap back when I graduated from WHS. We had maybe two blacks, a couple of NA's, a couple of Chicanos, a handful of Arabs and some Joos. 99% white. We were so pale the school was translucent. I smoked a splif with my brother to achieve the proper attitude for the august occasion. The band played the 1812 Overture complete with shotgun blanks fired into a garbage can to simulate the cannons, the principal mispronounced one of my friends name after a big to do about how he had never mispronounced a student's name in something like 40 years and Tall Paul who owned the head shop in town let loose with blasts from a Pakistani taxi horn every time one of the kids that hung out at his store walked across the stage. A good time was had by all.

Hate to say this, Blade, but you'll have to add the Argus-Liar to your list of posting full articles for those of us who are challenged.

Sorry, I am too busy with family and friends to click on that link and find out what point you're trying to make.

Maybe you could provide some bullet points from it?

Sure, being the Christian that I am, I'd be more than willing to help. The Rapid City city council has a prayer before each meeting. Do you think that's right?

You're very welcome.

Is there any part of the of the first amendment regarding religion that you would like to be schooled on or do you wish to follow the liberal mantra of being wrong in their interpretation?

How are they "wrong"? Do you see it differently than the Supreme Court does:

Separation of Church and State
"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof."

http://www.pbs.org/now/politics/churchandstate.html

THOMAS JEFFERSON'S PRESIDENCY
Unlike his predecessors Presidents Washington and Adams, Thomas Jefferson opposed Presidential proclamations for prayer, fasting and thanksgiving. Well-known for his unorthodox religious opinions as well as for his liberal views on religious liberty and the separation of church and state, Jefferson was the writer of Virginia's Statute for Religious Freedom, which ended all practice of state-supported religion in Virginia when it was enacted into law in 1786.

Jefferson was the one who coined the phrase "wall of separation between Church and State" in a letter he wrote to the Danbury Baptist Association in 1802, in which he described his understanding of the meaning of the religious clauses of the First Amendment.


EVERSON V. BOARD OF EDUCATION (1947)
The Supreme Court unanimously affirmed the separation of church and state and used Jefferson's letter for the court opinion. Justice Black said, "That wall must be kept high and impregnable." Most of the Supreme Court's church-state decisions handed down since this case have been grounded in the Everson standard.

I think it has nothing to do with Chamberlain and that you should have started it's own thread.

There is no problem in RC. Why does this need to be fixed via law suites. Waste of money and another leftist attempted to erode of our basic freedoms.

Now what's your take ..........

Definitely a waste of time and money. But, why is it a "leftist" rather than "rightist" attempt to erode freedoms? That doesn't make sense.

That's what I was wondering. Doubt anyone will answer that one though.
