Since the Pledge of Allegiance and The Lord's Prayer are not allowed in most
public schools anymore because the word "God" is mentioned.... A kid wrote the attached NEW School prayer.
(I copied and pasted off a bulletin on MySpace.)

Now I sit me down in school
Where praying is against the rule
For this great nation under God
Finds mention of Him very odd.

If Scripture now the class recites,
It violates the Bill of Rights.
And anytime my head I bow
Becomes a Federal matter now.

Our hair can be purple, orange or green,
That's no offense; it's a freedom scene.
The law is specific, the law is precise.
Prayers spoken aloud are a serious vice.

For praying in a public hall
Might offend someone with no faith at all.
In silence alone we must meditate,
God's name is prohibited by the state.

We're allowed to cuss and dress like freaks,
And pierce our noses, tongues and cheeks.
They've outlawed guns, but FIRST the Bible.
To quote the Good Book makes me liable.

We can elect a pregnant Senior Queen,
And the 'unwed daddy,' our Senior King.
It's "inappropriate" to teach right from wrong,
We're taught that such "judgments" do not belong.

We can get our condoms and birth controls,
Study witchcraft, vampires and totem poles.
But the Ten Commandments are not allowed,
No word of God must reach this crowd!

It's scary here I must confess,
When chaos reigns the school's a mess.
So, Lord, this silent plea I make:
Should I be shot; My soul please take!

Amen

That is really true what is said in that

it is really quite rediculous that some of these things are allowed in schools

Reminds me of a bumper sticker I saw

"Don't pray in my school, and I won't think in your church."

... Forcing someone to pray in a public school is illegal. If you want to get a group together to pray before or after school, no problem.

the rules are there to protect everyone from each other, not to stifle a single group.

You want to pray during school? Shovel out money to go to a private school, or let every religious faction be supported equally. (In other words, if a satanic cult popped up at school, you'd have to let them pray too.)

you won't get arrested for praying out loud... just don't get a group together during school hours and don't force anyone to do it with you... :(

It's so stupid after all the United States places its trust in God and a nation under Him.
