A New way to Pray... In the U.S. of A.


new version of the Pledge of Allegiance:









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



I pray that you enjoyed this. It's certainly one way around it for them.

GOD Bless, Love and Peace

I got another good email that might go along with this. A senior class was having their graduation ceromony and had been warned by the school board that they couldn't pray or mention anything about what God had done for them during their speeches.
Well,all the speeches had been given except one,and a young man went up to the podium and just stood silent for a few moments. All of the sudden the whole class at the same time let out a big sneeze. The student looked at them and said "God Bless You. God Bless each and every one of you" The student then went and sat down and the crowd stood up and gave a long standing ovation!
