Re: Foul Witch Challenges Bibles in North Carolina School

Since all of you are racist, hate-filled, and generally a plague upon this island Earth....

You're mistaken friend, we aren't any of those things. We are True Christians™ who love the LORD and follow His commands as put forth in the King James Version Holy Bible, 1611, word for word, no exceptions.

[Redeemed Papist]

That you can believe in whatever you want to. You can believe in NOTHING if you want to. That's the truth.

Yes, that's true. Sadly you burn to death forever if you do. But that's not the Truth (R)

Re: Foul Witch Challenges Bibles in North Carolina School

It's only a matter of opinion.

Not at all. I suppose you could believe "nothing" if you wanted to - theoretically - but no-one has actually managed to do that yet. You, for example, believe that "It's only a matter of opinion" WHEREAS everything referred to in Rev. Ezekiel Flint's post is a matter of historical record.

His list is limited, naturally, because of space. God tells us:

JOHN 21
24 This is the Disciple which testifieth of these things, and wrote these things, and we know that his testimonie is true.
25 And there are also many other things which Iesus did, the which if they should be written euery one, I suppose that euen the world it selfe could not conteine the bookes that should be written, Amen.

The volume of material as it is comprises a gigantic resource from ancient scrolls to books still in print!

Deciding to ignore such an abundance of evidence is a sort of "choice" I suppose - or are you suggesting that you were "born that way"?

"Only their pure hatred for the Lord can motivate these creatures to even brave the light of day (let alone the eye of the public), "

Is that so? Because I quite distinctly remember having a conversation with an older Wiccan couple outside, in broad daylight, in the middle of a flea market parking lot with looking at Classic Rock records. I'm also pretty sure that many peace-abiding Wiccans and Pagans both attend and work at the Renaissance Festivals, which end at 7pm, so the majority of which take place in broad daylight.

"he found out her 12-year-old boy was a Christian when he came home from school with a Bible hidden in his backpack. "

So if you own a bible, you're automatically a Christian?

"The skyclad harlot immediatley tossed the Bible in the bathroom closet with the Charmin Ultra, dusted off her only set of plus size clothing and rode the public transit system straight to the Buncombe County School Board of Education. "

I have rarely met a Wiccan or Pagan who is actually into going around skyclad. Most have plenty of clothing, a lot of them are into peasant skirts and Hippie-influenced clothing.

"They were even more horrified when she showed up with what was reported as "pagan spell books," which most likely included The Satanic Bible, The Audacity of Hope by Barack HUSSEIN Obama and the Art of War by Mao Tse-Tung."

None of which are "Pagan spell books." LaVeyan Satanists, Wiccans, and Pagans are different things. Obama is a Muslim.

" It was by God's hand alone that this woman can't fit into a car,"

While I do agree that she needs to lose weight, I've seen much bigger women somehow manage to squeeze themselves into little cars. Can't you right any articles without insulting people?

"The books alone were enough to make the school look at its policies to avoid a curse,"

It would not surprise me if they were afraid she'd curse them, but that just goes to show how ignorant people are on the subject. There aren't too many real Wiccans in the world, and most of the people who call themselves that (the Neo-Wiccans who don't understand even the fundamentals of Wicca) believe in the three-fold law and the so-called "Wiccan Rede." Unless she is a real Wiccan, which would be a surprise, she would be going against her religious beliefs if she cursed anyone. Also, the school probably had to take the bible off the table because it's been illegal to teach religion in public schools for years. Though my high school managed to get around the law, which never really bothered me. I've never seen anything wrong with learning about other religions.

"They've already taken prayer out of education,"

I don't think this had anything to do with Wiccans. I'm pretty sure this had to do with Jehova Witnesses, Jews, etc.,

" they're working hard on the Pledge of Allegiance "

Even though I am a Druidess, I have never seen the reason for taking "God" out of the pledge. Students were not forced to repeat the pledge or even stand. Any school that did enforce this was actually breaking the law. If it was not your religion, the law was always that you did not have to say it. It really didn't serve any purpose taking it out except that the schools who broke the law by forcing children of other religions to repeat "under God" can no longer do so.

"d and use the American flag as their doormat by rejecting the basic values this country was founded on. "

This country has always had freedom of religion.

"If they don't like Bibles in the classroom, why don't they just get the hell out of America?"

America has freedom of religion. No one should be forced to read the bible. However, I do not see any reason to be upset if your child wants to read it. But it's not a case of her being upset about her child wanting to read the bible, it's her being upset that constitutional rights and freedom of religion are not being upheld, and she was being treated unfairly. You blew this article way out of proportion, but I'm not surprised.

"Schools should not be giving out one religion's materials and not others," Strivelli said."

I agree with this. If a school is going to be handing out religious material or teaching religious material, it should not be using only one religious. The constitution allows us freedom of religion.

"According to Strivelli, the principal assured her the school would make available religious texts donated by any group. But when Strivelli showed up at the school with pagan spell books, she was turned away."

Again, you blew this out of proportion. The school promised her equal rights, that they would allow donations of any religious texts.

""You can either open your public school up to all religious material, or you can say no religious material," Michael Broyde, a professor and senior fellow at Emory University's Center for the Study of Law and Religion said. "You can't say, 'You can distribute religious material, but only from the good mainstream faiths.'"

That is an absolutely FAIR judgment that abides by the U.S. constitution, that was created by our founding fathers.

Now if only they would make religious holidays the same as sick days. That would be the only way to make it fair to every religion.

Why don't you stop blowing everything out of proportion, twisting people's words, and changing definitions to suit you? I'm still waiting for your church to back up it's own words.

And Jesus is still waiting for you to throw away your cauldron and break your broom and start adoring Him instead of satan.

Re: Foul Witch Challenges Bibles in North Carolina School

Since all of you are racist, hate-filled, and generally a plague upon this island Earth, I rather chill with Satan. He's looking a lot better than your god or any of you for that matter.

You'll be meeting Satan soon enough, but you won't be chilling. Just the opposite.

Etc, etc, blah, blah, blah, drivel, methamphetamine, tweaking, telling Christians on a Christian web site how wrong they are and nothing better to do for hours and hours and hours.

Blah, Blah, Blah. Teeth rotting, getting mad, throwing the black candle out the window at the neighbors.

Blah, Blah, Blah.
