Since the Pledge of Allegiance
and
The Lord's Prayer
are not allowed in most
public schools anymore
because the word "God" is mentioned....
a kid in Arizona wrote the attached
NEW School prayer.
I liked it....
>
>
> Now I sit me down in school
>
> Where praying is against the rule
>
> For this great nation under God
>
> Finds mention of Him very odd.
> If Scripture now the class recites,
>
> It violates the Bill of Rights.
>
> And anytime my head I bow
>
> Becomes a Federal matter now.
> Our hair can be purple, orange or green,
>
> That's no offense; it's a freedom scene.
>
> The law is specific, the law is precise.
>
> Prayers spoken aloud are a serious vice.
> For praying in a public hall
>
> Might offend someone with no faith at all.
>
> In silence alone we must meditate,
>
> God's name is prohibited by the state.
> We're allowed to cuss and dress like freaks,
>
> And pierce our noses, tongues and cheeks.
>
> They've outlawed guns, but FIRST the Bible.
>
> To quote the Good Book makes me liable.
> We can elect a pregnant Senior Queen,
>
> And the 'unwed daddy,' our Senior King.
>
> It's "inappropriate" to teach right from wrong,
>
We're taught that such "judgments" do not belong.
> We can get our condoms and birth controls,
>
> Study witchcraft, vampires and totem poles.
>
> But the Ten Commandments are not allowed,
>
> No word of God must reach this crowd.
> It's scary here I must confess,
>
> When chaos reigns the school's a mess.
> So, Lord, this silent plea I make:
Should I be shot; My soul please take!
Amen
