[CS-FSLUG] In God We Trust

[David M.]

Paul Harvey says: -
"I don't believe in Santa Claus, but I'm not going to sue somebody for
singing a Ho-Ho-Ho song in December.
I don't agree with Darwin, but I didn't go out and hire a lawyer when
my high school teacher taught his theory of evolution.

Life, liberty or your pursuit of happiness will not be endangered
because someone says a 30-second prayer before a football game.

So what's the big deal?  It's not like somebody is up there reading
the entire book of Acts.  They're just talking to a God they believe in
and asking him to grant safety to the players on the field and the fans
going home from the game.

"But it's a Christian prayer," some will argue.  Yes, and this is the
United States of America, a country founded on Christian principles.
According to our very own phone book, Christian churches outnumber all
others better than 200-to-1.  So what would you expect-somebody
chanting Hare Krishna?  If I went to a football game in Jerusalem, I would
expect to hear a Jewish prayer.

If I went to a soccer game in Baghdad, I would expect to hear a Muslim
prayer.  If I went to a ping pongee match in China, I would expect to
hear someone pray to Buddha.  And I wouldn't be offended.  It wouldn't
bother me one bit.  When in Rome.

"But what about the atheists?" is another argument. What about them?
Nobody is asking them to be baptized. We're not going to pass the
collection plate. Just humor us for 30 seconds..  If that's asking too
much, bring a Walkman or a pair of ear plugs.  Go to the bathroom.
Visit the concession stand.  Call your lawyer!  Unfortunately, one or
two will make that call.  One or two will tell thousands what they can
and cannot do.  I don't think a short prayer at a football game is
going to shake the world's foundations.

Christians are just sick and tired of turning the other cheek while
our courts strip us of all our rights.  Our parents and grandparents
taught us to pray before eating, to pray before we go to sleep.

Our Bible tells us to pray without ceasing. Now a handful of people
and their lawyers are telling us to cease praying. God, help us.  And if
that last sentence offends you, well..........just sue me.

The silent majority has been silent too long. it's time we let that
one or two who scream loud enough to be heard, that the vast majority
don't care what they want. It is time the majority rules!  It's time we tell
them, you don't have to pray.. you don't have to say the pledge of
allegiance, you don't have to believe in God or attend services that
honor Him. That is your right, and we will honor your right.. But by
golly, you are no longer going to take our rights away. we are
fighting back.. And we WILL WIN!

God bless us one and all, especially those who denounce Him... God
bless America, despite all her faults, she is still the greatest nation of
all.....

God bless our service men who are fighting to protect our right to
pray and worship God...

May 2005  be the year the silent majority is heard and we put God back
as the foundation of our families and institutions.
Keep looking up..... In God WE Trust.
