[net.misc] Recanting Prayer in School

wbpesch@ihuxp.UUCP (Walt Pesch) (03/08/84)

I have been seen previously in favor of an UNBIASED Prayer in School
in various newsgroups, and after hearing the last week's news, I would
not like to be associated with the *ssh*les that are currently in
Washington tyring to get this ammendment passed.  

It is not an unbiased law, but a way for the moral majority  to
start the brain-washing of the youth in not only the home and in the 
church but also now in the school.  And the real "sin" in all this is
that it is not a choice, to go to school, you will have to be atleast
a non-participating participant.  There will be no choice... during
the day there will be prayer, their prayer.  I am really peeved
at the way that they are acting.  "The devil's in Elmhurst" indeed.
Give me a break.  What's next?  Schools having the right to choose their
own science theories and Public Schools will now be teaching the
hogwash of the creationists and creative science as fact.  Give me a
second break.

And as to my character, although a Conservative Independant, which
leads me to vote almost all the time Republican and agree with their
theories of the proper way to govern this country, I am by no means
mixed up with these creeps.  Can't we send them to Iran where they can
mix their Church and State?
