The school opened its doors to christian proselytizers to bombard students with religious dogma. See more: ffrf.org

Emily does the rap breakdown on Let Them Eat War during the Las Cruces, NM stop of the Vans Warped Tour 2009. Fat Mike started doing part of it, but he stumbled off stage after he saw Emily. www.facebook.com LYRICS: There’s a prophet on a mountain and he’s making up dinner With long division and riding crop Anybody can feel like a winner When it’s served up piping hot But the people aren’t looking for a handout They’re America’s working corps Can this be what they voted for? Let them eat war That’s how to ration the poor Let them eat war There’s an urgent need to feed Declining pride From the force to the union shops The war economy is making new jobs But the people who benefit most Are breaking bread with their benevolent hosts Who never stole from the rich to give to the poor All they ever gave to them was a war And a foreign enemy to deplore [CHORUS] We’ve got to kill ’em and eat ’em Before they reach for their checks Squeeze some blue collars Make ’em bleed from their necks Seize a few dollars from the people who sweat Cause it’s freedom or debt and they won’t question it At a job site the boss is God-like Conditioned workhorses park at a stoplight Seasoned vets with their feet in nets A stones throw away from a rock fight But not tonight, feed em death Here comes another ration (feed them death) Cause they’re the finest in the nation (feed them death) When there’s nothing left to feed them When it’s freedom or it’s death [CHORUS]

Disgusting that any principal with a brain would allow this to happen in a public school. Wait…I think I just figured it out.

They’re lucky they didn’t pull this shit at my high school when I was a kid. I wouldn’t have sat quietly on the bleachers and taken that. I would have been in the bathroom on the phone with the ACLU, followed by being back in the stands heckling them for pushing their bronze-age goatfucking superstitions on a captive audience.
FUCK these people.

The school knew this was WAY out of line. Can you imagine if they’d invited a Muslim rapper to do this exact same thing? How about a Satanist one, to come in and tell everyone they needed Satan in their lives? Yeah. Same thing.

So angry at these fukkers poisoning the minds of the innocent with their filth! What’s his problem with evolution? Only in the US, in the rest of the world mainstream christianity came to terms with evolution years ago. This is yet more evidence of these twisted freaks trying to find something else to hate for Jesus.

In case anyone doesn’t know, one of the parents (along with the assistance of the ACLU) sued this school district and thankfully they won the case. No more ILLEGAL proselytizing for any religion will be allowed in the school.
Separation of Church and State FTW!

@ablessedpreacher All the more reason to take him out. He will still be there for believers, and people of different or no faith can live without having someone else’s beliefs imposed upon them.

Greatful to the people who saw that God was and is needed in the school, the fact is that he’s there even when opposing forces try to take him out.

@futymed I see what your saying, but the important thing is to teach our children to be objective, critical thinkers, so that if some over zealous individual tries to preach to them, they can recognize that they have a choice, and not just be lead like a little sheep. We can’t censor everything we don’t like from them, so it’s better to teach them to question things and consider alternatives without being naive. We part our knowledge to them and let them make their own choices.

@tokingmonkey you said ” I believe children should be exposed to religion in a clear, concise manner, making it clear that this is a personal choice that they are not forced to make. ”
You could say the same thing about Drugs, Alcohol, Smoking, Stealing and collecting stamps ….
I personally, don’t want my life ruled by stamp collectors, telling me I am sinful for not collecting stamps and passing laws based on stamp designs from 2,000 years ago.

@blueangel52263 Brainwashing is brainwashing, doesn’t matter how small or where, it’s wrong. We have these laws for a reason, and while I don’t usually put much stock in our justice system, in this case it’s absolutely essential.

This is exactly what this video represents. Education officials concerning themselves with religious practices when their jobs are to teach children about math, science, writing, life skills…things that exist in the physical, are applicable to work and real world problems, not the metaphysical. I believe children should be exposed to religion in a clear, concise manner, making it clear that this is a personal choice that they are not forced to make.

Religion has no place in law, governance or education. While I’m perfectly accepting of religion as a personal choice, and that it has churches to offer guidance for those who “ASK” for it; it has no place in our schools. Do teachers have the freedom to express their beliefs? Certainly, by all means as long as they state clearly that this is their opinion. Do they have the right to teach it as factual, or to go behind parents backs and manipulate children into joining? They do not.
