Bless the Least of the Children
Timothy Birdnow
The sad thing is the poorly educated teachers and administrators probably believe they are following the Constitution since it bans CONGRESS from establishing religion or prohibiting the free exercise thereof. These dopes think it means banning school children from simply showing their Bibles rather than banning teachers from promoting or prohibiting the free exercise of said religion.
The kids in a Washington school had to hide their Bibles in sealed envelopes lest they infect the minds of other children, who may start praying or act out in other destructive ways.
The HORROR!
FTA:
Students attending an optional, off-campus Bible program were required to carry their Bibles and other religious materials in sealed envelopes inside their backpacks when they returned to school.
Now the Everett School District has agreed to apologize, revise its procedures, provide religious liberty training for school board members, and pay $275,000 in attorney’s fees to settle a federal lawsuit.
As Fox News reports, the controversy involved LifeWise Academy, which provides privately funded Bible instruction to public school students during the school day. Parents must give permission, and the classes are conducted away from school property.
But Everett officials weren't satisfied with making children conceal their Bibles. They also required parents to submit new permission slips every week rather than allowing authorization for an entire semester. LifeWise was excluded from certain school community events and opportunities to distribute flyers available to secular organizations.
And then there's school board member Charles Adkins, who at a December 2025 board meeting, publicly declared, "I do in fact hold animus toward LifeWise Academy.”
If you hold animus against LifeWise does that make you Lifefoolish? I would think so.
Undoubtedly this creep is an atheist or some sort of neopagan, or maybe Muslim He may have a philosophical hatred of Christians and Christianity. But many of the others just did it because they were too ignorant of what separation of Church and State" means (and it wasn't even written in the Constitution. That phrase came from Thomas Jefferson to the Danbury Baptist Church "it's as if there were a wall of separation between church and State" was Jefferson's exact quote in his letter to the Baptists.)
The reality is there is a concerted effort to remove Christianity from public life. This is the Soviet model; the Constitution of 1936 expressly granted freedom of worship - but it also granted freedom of anti-religious activities, meaning they could target churches and bust up worshippers. Also, the "freedom" did not allow church schools nor promoting religion with pamphlets or books or whatnot. They wanted to strangle religion while making it appear they were protecting it. Stalin was pleased and the Soviet Union saw church attendance decline drastically over the years.
That is exactly what they are trying to do here. They are making all signs of religion disappear so as to eventually make church attendance fade away. It's unamerican and has no business in our schools but there you are. Teachers tend to be very liberal because they live like leeches off government money. So they all go overboard in stuff like this.
America was founded by Christian men and women and the country was settled by Christians seeking free worship as they pleased. The clause was put into the Constitution to prevent one religious group dominating the country, but it has become a war on religion itself, most especially on Christianity. If you wage war you shouldn't be surprised when war is waged on you; we will eventually have the power to take away your parasitic lifestyle and we are starting to see that now as things like the Department of Education are defunded. Parents pay the taxes for those schools and they can stop paying. The public really has more power than they know and if they exercise it these cretins running our schools will have to back off, or better yet leave the profession entirely. Peddle your Godless Marxism elsewhere. Our children deserve better.
