Free country

We had a guest speaker in Church today - Pastor Roubik Hoospianmer, from Iran. And he had a very interesting story to tell.

It seems that about 13 years ago, Mr. Roubik was in the United States recieving some sort of teaching. He had some skill with a guitar, so he asked one of his teachers if he could play a Christian song with it that day.

The teacher said no - that religious songs could not be played in school. Roubik said that they were in America, which was a free country; but this teacher ignored him.

Now, a week later, it was Halloween. This same teacher decided to do a class that day, and spoke for an hour about Satan. Roubik turned his earlier argument back on him and told him that he shouldn't speak about religion in school - but this teacher said that it was a free country, and proceeded with his talk.

After reading that, does this sound like a free country to you? Singing about Jesus is banned from school by a teacher who later teaches about Satan?

Onwards…

I'm not even going to mention the ridiculous anti-Christian propaganda going down in a topic a ways down the board.

In other news, the unmentionable game is approaching demo status.

Yaywalter: The blog is about American Freedom. This is a Canadian site, dictatorship all the way.

>Yaywalter: Freedom from religion is in no way guaranteed. The freedom given is freedom OF religion.

I should just stop posting here, or just think before I post.

Ask not what your country can do for you. Ask what you can do for your country. Don't even bother, they won't do anything for you in return. =P

That's why I don't say the Pledge of Allegiance in school. I hate the government. America is anything BUT free, like Melee said. I only like it here because my friends are here. The US used to be a MUCH better country like 14 years ago, when I was born.
