Fools In Charge of Schools

Thinking themselves
wiser than God,
they banned God
from their schools.
Thinking themselves
wiser than God,
they proved that
they were fools.

James,

Whose God are you talking about?

Religion does not belong in Public Schools.

I sent my kids to Catholic Schools.

They were more comfortable there than they would have been in Jewish, or Muslim Schools.

Come to think of it, some of my grandchildren might go to a Muslim School, as my youngest is married to a Muslim woman.

We are all human beings entitled to our own beliefs.  That's what the USA is all about.

I, myself worship money.  Give me a little bread and I'll swear I believe anything.

Bobby
