I agree wholeheartedly with this man. However on one point he diluted his own argument. It is not illegal to pray in school. And the legislators know it. It is only illegal to have a formal time of prayer during class.

As long as the two sides of this argument talk past each other, and appear to twist the facts, no one in power will be persuaded.

The same Congress that ratified the First Amendment wrote the Northwest Ordinance. According to the United States Code, it is one of the four principle documents on which our nation was founded (Declaration of Independence, Articles of Confederation, Constitution, and Northwest Ordinance). It says, “Religion, morality, and knowledge being necessary to good government and the happiness of mankind, schools and the means of education shall be forever encouraged and established in the Northwest Territory. Language from the Northwest Ordinance was found in the language of state constitutions for a hundred years and refutes the myth of “separation of church and state” which hold that government cannot endorse religion over non-religion and that schools are no place for religion. The Ordinace unmistakable says schools are necessary to teach religion.

It is illegal to teach morality in the schools so it should be obvious where it has all been heading. Eve since Columbine I have had a bad feeling about the challenges our kids are facing. If we don’t teach them at home they are in big trouble. My kids’ youth group is also a big help. I want to encourage everybody to try and get your kids involved in Bible studies or some kind of youth activity so they make the right kinds of friends.
