I grew up in the RCC. I don't remember anything ever being said or done about it aside from neighborhood talk. And I grew up in a place where there was a catholic church or two in every neighborhood.

Yeah, no march on Washington. And no MLK to stand up for the right to pray at school.

We are inconsistent.

Right, it is like someone eating junk food and blaming God for not healing them. Any time a society loses it's moral compass, there are going to be problems and it won't be God's fault.

Re: Mike Huckabee Statements

As I posted on Facebook:


"We have 5 children. They all went to public/government schools. I would not want a government employee teaching my children to pray a government approved prayer."


and as Kendall Odle said on Facebook and I later quoted him:

"...there is no law against praying in schools, only against government led prayers." Kendall Odle


I personally do not think our government should force a government prayer upon all children because we are so ethnically and culturally diverse. One size does not fit all.

Re: Mike Huckabee Statements

Thanks everyone for the good discussion. I realized that I didnt get the full context of the original statements. Very few things make me cry. This whole thing almost did. Its really sad. I found myself wondering where GOD was in all of it.

Where He was before, during, and after.

And I have a question, do evil people know they are evil?
