My right to pray!
This is a headline of an article I read today: "Private and Christian schools in Illinois are being told not to pray at athletic events". My question is; when did we become so politically correct that now we cannot ask our Saviour, or our God, for assistance in human endeavors? Who do these people think they are that they can tell me that my strength, my faith, my belief in God is something that I cannot call on in times when I really need that strength to help me through? I've said it before and I will say it again; if you give these people who wish to take away our rights an inch, they will keep pushing until they have a foot, then a yard, and then the entire measuring stick will be theirs to brandish over our heads. Now, we are to the point that even if we send our kids to religious schools because we are tired of being told who and what we can pray to, we will still be told who and what we can pray to. I coach at a Catholic school and we pray before every game, even though I'm not Catholic, I will vehemently oppose anyone who attempts to take those rights away. Heaven help us when we cannot even call on heaven to help us!
