Atheists are at it Again - GA High School told to Punt Pre-game Prayer & Banners

By Elizabeth Nelson

Atheists bully much? It seems that the Atheists have their panties in a wad again, this time over Chestatee High School's practice of pre-game prayers and their banners.  If we saw a motivational banner which read:

"Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up," and a banner "As iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another," would our first thought go to, "these Bible thumpers are preaching at me?"

Oh no, it's the Football coaches leading the War Eagles that caused the Atheist group to threaten to sue Hall Country schools, if they didn't remove the Bible Verses and stop praying on the field.

Miller, whose organization sent a letter Tuesday threatening to sue Hall County Schools, said a “concerned citizen” notified the national nonprofit group that the 1,200-student school in Gainesville, about 55 miles northeast of Atlanta, appeared to be doing an end run around the First Amendment. The letter demanded that coaches cut team-sanctioned prayers and remove all Bible verses and other religious messages from team documents and materials.

The group was particularly outraged that outgoing Head Coach Stan Luttrell joined players as they held hands and prayed.

“At times, the head coach has led the prayers, which is an egregious violation of the Establishment Clause,” the letter continues. “This involvement in prayer as a ‘participant, an organizer, and a leader’ would unquestionably ‘lead a reasonable observer to conclude that he was endorsing religion.’”

The letter cited numerous cases of coaches and teachers leading team prayers during practices and after games and said the program cited scripture...

“Unfortunately, the school’s actions in unconstitutionally advancing and endorsing religion do not end with the prayers,” read the letter. Read more Foxnews

So, that would lead me to ask, why are Jesus loving Christians the only ones who are being singled out and being told that they are no longer free to openly express their faith and devotion to our God, but we don't see this Administration or society telling Muslims that they can't worship their faith in the way they are custom to, to the point that we've watched them kill homosexuals and Christians in other Countries we continue to fund, all in the name of Allah and their Religious Jihad. Yet we don't see Muslims here telling them that's wrong. Silence and continued support screams implied consent.
