Funny how it's always the Christians who are the hateful ones. I saw that Nova program (I had Tivo'd it earlier) last night about the lawsuit in Dover, PA over teaching intelligent design. Sure enough, those involved in the suit, including the judge who ruled against teaching ID in the schools, received hate mail and even death threats. I guess that's what Jesus would do....
I want to know how this school/town gets away with saying prayers to any god(s), in a PUBLIC SCHOOL??
I hope by the time this is over and done with, that all signs of religion are banned from that school by the Fed's !!
I especially feel so SORRY for that poor teen girl, to have to be subjected to mindless hateful idiots that think their god is not only real, but force their delusions upon innocent folks who happen to use their brains. I also imagine that even if a boy in her school liked her enough to date her, he wouldn't dare do so, knowing the wrath he would face from the public eye.
Perhaps that school's students and staff, should be forced by the Fed's to spend an entire day learning about our laws that separate church and state ?
I've heard their story before and in much more detail. What I've learned is that when dealing with religious folks you need to record everything - preferably video.
When the father went to talk with the Principal, the father was assaulted but the Principal claimed otherwise. Who do the police believe? Why the fine upstanding xtian of course! I can't remember if the charges were dropped or he was found not guilty; it was a while ago.
It's nothing for them to lie, threaten, steal, and harm in the name of their gawd. Catch them in the act and show them for the hypocrites they are.
It is a terrible shame that an intelligent girl and her family are shunned by an ENTIRE TOWN in a country that supposedly says we have religious freedom.
Well, when that so-called religious freedom really means you have the right to believe in anything so long as it is Christianity, it's not really freedom. It's tyranny, and Americans ought to be ashamed of it.
Please excuse the vulgarity of the following rant, but I assure you it is based on experience and comes from the heart;
"I fucking hate those fucking closed-minded old religious bitches with their fucking disguised ass comments about love and acceptance, knowing full well the sheer hate in their decrepid fucking hearts for anybody different, while their dark biggoted hateful actions shun anybody that doesn't line up with what they think is right!"
OK, sorry about that. I guess you can see I have some issues huh?
Backward, Christian soldiers! Skulking as from war.
Bunch of snivelling little cowards, living down to one of the enduring American traditions, the lynch mob.
That family should keep a detailed diary of their experiences, complete with names dates and places, so that the culprits and their descendants will never be able to look away from, run away from, or deny who they were and what they did when it mattered. When it was not easy.
Makes you want to move to Sweden or something...However - I'm not surprised by this treatment. The "good 'ol boy" network is in full swing, and you know that no one will stand beside this girl, even though thay all keep saying "we don't push anyone aside".
I had to laugh about the atheist=satan worshipper. Apparently, those townfolk don't seem to get the atheist concept...
Christians talk about the power of their god. The only power they have is their large numbers of cult followers.
I remember back when this church that I went to was in the middle of a building program. They would take up an offering for a new building, and when they finally had enough money to build the new building, they would thank god for providing the income and resources in order to build their building.
Funny how christians thank God for providing when it was actually all of the church members who provided their own income to fund that building. Not God.
I've been following this for years now.. Poor Girl was humiliated and teased by students and teachers and coaches... As far as I'm concerned theres not a hell hot enough for those so called christian students, teachers, and coaches! What Christian LOVE they showed.. LOL.. Really makes me want to go right back to church! FUCKING Jerks! Sorry for the language but watching this poor little girl cry on 20/20 a few years back really angered me!
This young lady has a lot of courage. I have no doubt that she has a great future ahead of her.
I'd previously heard that small town Oklahoma was a bit dim, but I never knew it was such a superstitious ninteenth-century backwater. It might as well be Alabama.

Soooo Caleb,
I'm GUESSING you probably despise things like; hateful, mean-spirited, bigoted, narrow-minded, lying through their teeth, religious nuts then?
But I'm only guessing here.
ATF (who wonders if Caleb's "issues" have any similarity to those liquid issues of the bible book [grin] )

Christians are naive indeed.
"I had to laugh about the atheist=satan worshipper. Apparently, those townfolk don't seem to get the atheist concept..."
Yeah, and the town people probably think that family is going to sacrifice their goat in some satanic ritual.
Stupid redneck town.
The lying-for-jesus crowd will find a way to make themselves the victims here, especially if they have to stop their insidious prayer policies.
Lying and crying persecution are the sword and shield of their arsenal right now.

I'm sure most of the townsfolk in that little town in Oklahoma are inbred also.
"IN OUR TOWN WE BELIEVE TWO THINGS:
CHRIST IS THE ONLY WAY AND INCEST IS BEST".
I wonder who their mayor is? Joe Dirt?
