Then you're simply advocating Christian privilege. If you want a practical lesson in why religious privilege is a bad thing, move to Saudi Arabia and try to practice your faith.

Why should I move to Saudi Arabia, when i have freedom to practice my Religion the way I want to, not only that, it's more fun watching you have a bad hair day.

Good grief, what is your problem? Go back and read the very first post in the thread, and try to ferret out the issue. Let me know what you think it is, and I'll tell you if you're right or not.

The school is not at fault nor is the student, the student was only excercising their religious freedom of expression thru praying.
Remember freedom of expression.
That's all the student was doing, Expression their Religious beliefs in praying at the football game.

From the very first post, the OP:

"Earlier this year, the Freedom From Religion Foundation wrote a letter to the West Branch Local School District in Ohio because prayers were being recited over the loudspeaker at school-sponsored events. That’s obviously illegal, and the District agreed to put a stop to it by replacing all those prayers with a moment of silence."

So that's Ohio, that's doesn't mean every other State agrees with that.

Let's see if were getting this right, people have a problem with people praying over the sound system. But no problem with people praying in silence. So what if people raised their hands up in the air and prayed in silence, but waving their hands back and forth, I can guarantee you, people would find some reason to stop that.

Even if people got down on their knees praying, people would find a problem with that. If you hadn't notice that's all about controlling people.

When you eliminate other people's freedom, you eliminate your own freedom.

Once the government gets a foot in the door, that door becomes wider and wider and wider
Then soon you have no freedom's.

The Government is like a kid that's walk thru the door of candy story, they don't know when to stop they want more and more and more. As long as you give to them, the Government doesn't know when to stop.

They sure do. It's not just Ohio. It's everywhere in the USA. It's a Federal Law.

Perhaps, but I seriously doubt it would be a legal reason. In fact, I bet it would be found to be illegal. :( -Boo Hoo

And when you overstep your legal rights you'd better be ready for the consequences. :cool: -We're watching.

Yeah let's do away with the government altogether, and let people do whatever they want. I bet you already have people in mind you're ready to burn for witchcraft and religious heresy. :p -"I'll get the matches bro."

The Federal law, does not tell other States what they can and can not do.

You said ---> "The Supreme Court has specifically struck down invocations given over the loudspeaker at public school athletic events, even when student-led, Santa Fe Indep. Sch. Dist. v. Doe, 530 U.S. 290, 320 (2000)"

In case you didn't know, that Supreme ruling was over turned. Back in 2010

Maybe you should tell California that, seeing the governor of California refuses to comply with Federal law. And he gets away with disobeying Federal law.

So not every State has to obey Federal law

I can find no reference to such a ruling. Give a citation to back up your claim.

No it doesn't. In that case, the Supreme Court found that laws prohibiting interracial marriage were unconstitutional. Therefore, any such law passed in any other state is equally unconstitutional.


You're not making sense.

Well if it's so unconstitutional, then how's come it doesn't apply to California.
Because California ruled over turned it.

That's interesting. Of course before I give it any credibility I'll have to see your evidence. . . . . . . Oops!, I just looked at your reply to Jose Fly here,

"I can't remember when, I can't remember where I was at, but I do know I heard it, but I can't remember who said it, but it's true in any case."​

which holds as much water as a sieve, it's obvious you're just trying to blow smoke up everyone's *****.


Have a good day.​
You're not worth the trouble, and your credibility on RF has just sunk to zero.​

Hey I'm just doing like democrats do. So it's come back on people.
Isn't that what the Accuser of Kavanaugh said ---( I can't remember when, I can't remember where I was at ?

As you said --( which holds as much water as a sieve, it's obvious you're just trying to blow smoke up everyone's *****.

So you just blew the Accuser of Kavanaugh out of the water. Thank you
