@sneakypete

Please point to the sentence (heck I'll settle for sentence fragment) where the President suggests he wants to force kids to pray?  I'll wait....

@Cyber Liberty

You can't POSSIBLY believe the thumpers will bring prayer back to public schools,and not make it mandatory. It was sure as hell mandatory when I was going to elementary school.

@sneakypete
While I am not ready to call it a "mistake", I am concerned...  5 times a day facing mecca.. how much disruption will this cause and how many lawsuits with it take to get it sorted out...
 

@EdinVA

Lawyers all over the country are already pricing new Mercedes limos,even as I write this.

Well, the day that big Brother threw God out the window from our classrooms is the day our nation sank to a new low.  There is nothing wrong with starting each day with a moment of silence to reflect -- those who want to pray may do so.

   Remember how much h3ll this guy caught from pelousi and her msm lapdogs? 
   It's certainly hypocritical times we are living in.

You compared modern Christians to Moslems.  Your Christian hatred sometimes get the better of you.

God must be  a wuss if he will allow a little thing like that to defeat him.

What you are promoting is nothing less than brainwashing children. How does this make you any different from the Muslims?

@Cyber Liberty

You mean modern Christians aren't dogmatic believers who think everyone should comply with their religious beliefs?

I'm sorry...this is TBR.  I'm not interested in having that religious argument.  Maybe a religious forum somewhere else would be the place.

Sneaky is correct.

Once it's established that school prayer should return, it won't be long afterward that special rooms are set up for Muslims to pray three, four, five times a day.

Sneaky is correct.

Any child can pray in school now - quietly, silently. That's just not the way Muslims do it. But I agree with Cyber - this is not the place for a religious debate.

His suggested Christians would force people to pray.  That's as far as I care to have this discussion go on TBR.

"As long as there are Math tests, there will always be prayer in school."

One of the many pitfalls of multiculturalism and globalists in our government.

My solution to newcomer assimilation is simple and goes like this: “Welcome to America. The language is English, our economic and political systems are capitalism and democratic republicanism and our faith traditions are JudeoChristian. Have a nice day.”

Listening to Christine Pelosi defend her mom's actions last night during the SOTU on Andrew Wilkow's show right now is a masters class in spin and demagoguery.  She even sounds like her mom.

I wonder if she's planning to succeed her in office.   

[txradioguy]

I wonder if she's planning to succeed her in office.   

She's the Women's Caucus Chair of the California Democratic Party and she's big into California as well as inside the beltway Dem politics.

It wouldn't surprise me in the least if she inherited her moms old seat.

Got my home internet back up and finally got to watch the speech.

What directness and swagger. Kicked and just kept kicking the smug and smarmy Democrats.

Yeah, swagger that’s the word. Each applause line was delivered as if he was thrusting a foil. I can hear his thinking with each thrust, “Take this, and that, and this....”

On second thought maybe it was a Viking sword or Falchion and he was slashing.

She dodges,she weaves......

Ever occur to you that a religious forum would be a more appropriate place to post comments like that?

[sneakypete]

Sneaky is correct.

@DCPatriot

Everybody,despite all the evidence to the contrary, always seems to believe that THEIR religious beliefs are the "one TRUE religion",and won't be affected by these new laws. It will only be the "other,un-Godly religions" that will be silenced.

Just wait until their female children are taught a Witches Coven is an ideal place for a young girl to "learn the one,true,truth".

[sneakypete]

@mountaineer

Muslims not only don't do it that way,they DEMAND that no one but them be allowed to pray,and eventually,demand they be the ONLY religion.

It is the nature of the beast.

Works for me.
