WRITTEN BY A 15 yr. Old SCHOOL STUDENT IN ARIZONA :
New Pledge of Allegiance - Since the Pledge of Allegiance And The Lord's Prayer Are not allowed in most Public schools anymore Because the word 'God' is mentioned...A student in Arizona wrote the attached
NEW School prayer :
Now I sit me down in school
Where praying is against the rule
For this great nation under God
Finds mention of Him very odd.
If Scripture now the class recites,
It violates the Bill of Rights.
And anytime my head I bow
Becomes a Federal matter now.
Our hair can be purple, orange or green,
That's no offense; it's a freedom scene.
The law is specific, the law is precise.
Prayers spoken aloud are a serious vice.
For praying in a public hall
Might offend someone with no faith at all
In silence alone we must meditate,
God's name is prohibited by the state.
We're allowed to cuss and dress like freaks,
And pierce our noses, tongues and cheeks..
They've outlawed guns, but FIRST the Bible.
To quote the Good Book makes me liable.
We can elect a pregnant Senior Queen,
And the 'unwed daddy,' our Senior King.
It's 'inappropriate' to teach right from wrong,
We're taught that such 'judgments' do not belong.
We can get our condoms and birth controls,
Study witchcraft, vampires and totem poles.
But the Ten Commandments are not allowed,
No word of God must reach this crowd..
It's scary here I must confess,
When chaos reigns the school's a mess.
So, Lord, this silent plea I make:
Should I be shot; My soul please take!
Amen

But Cappy, it is almost illegal to be a practicing Christian these days.

Ah yes, christians. Ever the victims.....
Actually, the Pledge of Allegiance as written would be fine. It was not until the time of the McCarthy hearings that the phrase "under God" was added.

I find it ironic that the orginal without "under God" was written by a Baptist Minister.
I don't like Ike!

I find it funny that totem polls and vampires are apparently great dangers to Christianity.

Y'all know that's why academic achievement has been floundering for years now, don't you?
When they told the kids they couldn't pray in school anymore there was nobody to rescue their sorry butts for not studying.

McCarthy was a smart man. He figured out who was the Red Menace long before everyone else.
