Tennessee: High School Football Teams Defy Orders and Lead Fans in Stirring Postgame Prayer

WJ:

Last week, school officials in Putnam County, Tennessee, were told that district employees were not allowed to lead students in prayer. That included not only teachers and staff but also coaches of athletic teams.

According to WZTV-TV in Nashville, Americans United for Separation of Church and State complained about “several instances of prayer and proselytizing at events at Cookeville and Upperman high schools,” both of which are in the Putnam Country School District.

Administrators from the school district contacted the schools’ attorney, who informed them that the law about cases such as this one is clear. MORE

  1. These anti-Christian groups better start watching their 6. There is coming a time, sooner than they think that the Americans United for the Separation of their Dumb Asses from America, are going to show up and do more than just “complain”.

  2. …and yet publik skoos can and often do have entire months devoted to every quack ideology that is sacred to its progenitors: BoyManLove, Trans-etc, rainbow flags, BLM, blah, blah, blah.

  3. The law (and the shyster lawyers) say that employees are not allowed to have prayer at HS football games.
    Nothing about STUDENTS having prayer at games.
    Good on the students for figuring out the work-around!
    Now watch the Libtards try to ban even that.
    Then watch the Libtards get hauled into court on 1A grounds.
    Admit it, Libtards, give up while you’re ahead.
    Give up while you still have a head.

  4. There is a time to rise up.

    Joel chapter 3, You have sold the sons of Judah and Jerusalem to the Greeks, sending them far from their land. 7 So I am going to move them from the place where you have sold them, and do to you what you have done to them. 8 I will sell your sons and daughters to the sons of Judah. And they will sell them to the Sabeans, to a nation far away.” The Lord has spoken.

    9 Make this known among the nations: Get ready for war! Call your strong men! Gather all the soldiers and let them come up! 10 Beat your plows into swords, and your vine hooks into spears. Let the weak say, “I am a powerful soldier.” 11 Hurry and come, all you nations on every side, and gather yourselves there. Bring down Your men of war, O Lord.

    Sure. Now if it’s evil, it’s good. If it’s been good, it’s now evil.

    Sounds familiar for some reason…
