  • A Win For Religious Liberty!

    Supreme Court Affirms Religious Liberty, Rules In Favor Of Public High School Football Coach Punished For Praying After Games

    On Monday morning, the Supreme Court of the United States ruled in Kennedy v. Bremerton School District that a public high school football coach in the state of Washington had his First Amendment rights violated after he was placed on administrative leave by the school district and banned from participating in the football program for praying on the field after games in view of students.

    “SCOTUS sides with a high school football coach in a First Amendment case about prayer at the 50-yard-line,” SCOTUS Blog tweeted Monday morning. “In a 6-3 ruling, SCOTUS says the public school district violated the coach’s free speech and free exercise rights when it barred him from praying on the field after games.” The case was ruled along ideological lines.

    Amen!
    The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

            So, it's a two-fer....

            He's getting stuff done even after he's out of office
            He's continually keeping the libs in a flummox

            It's like they're getting 'rewarded' for impeaching him.

              "The case was ruled along ideological lines."

              There is something very troubling about that statement. The Supreme Court is not supposed to be ideological.

                I think that's an opinion that's intended to invalidate the ruling.

                  I fear we have won two victories but will lose the war for America. The law can only do so much. We Christians need to spend as much effort on changing hearts as we do on politics.

                    Or to put it another way, if we change the hearts and minds of the people, then the politics will follow.

                          Good for him, figured that would be the decision as he didn't force kids to participate. He's now free to be a big ole Pharisee and pray for all to see in this public place.

                              Nowhere in the Bible does it suggest that public prayer is something only Pharisees and hypocrites do. On the contrary, there are numerous examples in scripture of righteous people openly praying and honoring God in public.
