"If anyone is ashamed of me and my words, the Son of Man will be ashamed of him when he comes in his glory and in the glory of the Father and of the holy angles." (Luke 9:26 - NIV)

At a Tennessee Football Game---not a joke, Christianity is now the target of persecution by the liberal/leftists today.
This is as good as it gets! God Bless everyone who reads this and passes it on.
I find it interesting that a high school principal can see the problem, but out society seems not to.
Tennessee Football
This
is a statement that was read over the PA system at the football game at
Roane County High School , Kingston , Tennessee, by school principal,
Jody McLeod
"It
has always been the custom at Roane County High School football games,
to say a prayer and play the National Anthem, to honor God and Country."
Due
to a recent ruling by the Supreme Court, I am told that saying a Prayer
is a violation of Federal Case Law. As I understand the law at this
time, I can use this public facility to approve of sexual perversion and
call it "an alternate life style," and, if someone is offended, that's
OK.
I can use it to condone sexual promiscuity, by dispensing condoms and calling it, "safe sex." If someone is offended, that's OK.
I
can even use this public facility to present the merits of killing an
unborn baby as a "viable" means of birth control." If someone is
offended, no problem...
I
can designate a school day as "Earth Day" and involve students in
activities to worship religiously and praise the goddess, "Mother
Earth", and call it "ecology.."
I
can use literature, videos and presentations in the classroom that
depicts people with strong, traditional Christian convictions as "simple
minded" and "ignorant" and call it "enlightenment.."
However,
if anyone uses this facility to honor GOD and to ask HIM to bless this
event with safety and good sportsmanship, then Federal Case Law is
violated.
This
appears to be inconsistent at best, and at worst, diabolical.
Apparently, we are to be tolerant of everything and anyone, except GOD
and HIS Commandments.
Nevertheless, as a school principal, I frequently ask staff and students to abide
by rules with which they do not necessarily agree. For me to do
otherwise would be inconsistent at best, and at worst, hypocritical. I
suffer from that affliction enough unintentionally. I certainly do not
need to add an intentional transgression.
For this reason, I shall "Render unto Caesar that which is Caesar's," and refrain from praying at this time.
"
However, if you feel inspired to honor, praise and thank GOD and ask
HIM, in the name of JESUS, to bless this event, please feel free to do
so.. As far as I know, that's not against the law--yet."
One by one, the people in the stands bowed their heads, held hands with one another and began to pray.
They
prayed in the stands. They prayed in the team huddles. They prayed at
the concession stand and they prayed in the Announcer's Box!
The
only place they didn't pray was in the Supreme Court of the United
States of America- the Seat of "Justice" in the "one nation, under GOD."
Somehow,
Kingston , Tennessee , remembered what so many have forgotten. We are
given the Freedom OF Religion, not the Freedom FROM Religion Praise GOD
that HIS remnant remains!
