Prayer In Public Schools Quotes By Kilroy J. Oldster

A person can allow a tyrannical world to bully them. One can kowtow to the demands of petty tormentors; blithely accept being the drummer boy for other people's private parade. Alternatively, a person can seek to obtain autonomy over their life. — Kilroy J. Oldster

Prayer In Public Schools Quotes By Norman Dorsen

Zealous groups threaten to infringe civil liberties when they seek government support to impose their own religious views on nonadherents.

Prayer In Public Schools Quotes By Jim Cymbala

Am I the only one who gets embarrassed when religious leaders in America talk about having prayer in public schools? We don't have even that much prayer in many churches!

Prayer In Public Schools Quotes By Ellen Goodman

Kerry asks Americans to look at the evidence. Bush asks people to believe. — Ellen Goodman

Prayer In Public Schools Quotes By Murray Rothbard

Restoring prayer ... will scarcely at this date solve the grievous public school problem. Public schools are expensive and massive centers for cultural and ideological brainwashing, at which they are unfortunately far more effective than in teaching the 3 R's or in keeping simple order within the schools. Any plan to begin dismantling the public school monstrosity is met with effective opposition by the teachers' and educators' unions. Truly radical change is needed to shift education from public to unregulated private schooling, religious and secular, as well as home schooling by parents. — Murray Rothbard

Prayer In Public Schools Quotes By Jonathan Cahn

Some would call it tolerance, I said. Yes he replied, the same tolerance that overtook ancient Israel..a tolerance for everything opposed to God, a growing tolerance for immorality and a growing intolerance for the pure-a tolerance that mocked, marginalized and condemned those who ramined faithful to the values now being discarded. Innocence was ridiculed and virtue was vilified. Children were taught of sexual immorality in public schools while the Word of God was banned. It was a tolerance that put the profane on public display and removed nativity scenes from public sight..contraband, as if somehow they had become a threat-a strangely intolerant tolerance. "But still, I countered, how does all that compare to what happened in ancient Israel? America does'nt offer its children on altars of sacrifice? "Does it not? he said. Ten years after removing prayer and Scripture from its public schools, the nation legalized the illing of its unborn. — Jonathan Cahn

Prayer In Public Schools Quotes By Alexandra Horowitz

Dogs also have a higher flicker-fusion rate than humans do: seventy or even eighty cycles per second. This provides an indication why dogs have not taken up a particular foible of persons: our constant gawking at the television screen. Like film, the image on your (non-digital) TV is really a sequence of still shots sent quickly enough to fool our eyes into seeing a continuous stream. But it's not fast enough for dog vision. They see the individual frames and the dark space between them too, as though stroboscopically. — Alexandra Horowitz

Prayer In Public Schools Quotes By Joyce Meyer

[The notion of separating church and state with such policies as disallowing prayer in public schools] is a deception from Satan. — Joyce Meyer

Prayer In Public Schools Quotes By Ronald Syme

A democracy cannot rule an empire. Neither can one man, though empire may appear to presuppose monarchy. There is always an oligarchy somewhere, open or concealed. — Ronald Syme

Prayer In Public Schools Quotes By Vin Suprynowicz

Ask a fellow if he favors organized prayer in the public schools. If he says 'No' he's a liberal. If he says 'Yes' he's a conservative. If he says, 'Public schools? The Constitution grants the government no power to run any mandatory tax-funded youth propaganda camps,' you have your hands on the wily libertarian. — Vin Suprynowicz

Prayer In Public Schools Quotes By Glenn Beck

A 2008 study conducted by Specialty Research Associates shows that the rates of teen sex, pregnancy, and venereal disease, along with crime, illiteracy, drug use, and suicide, started going through the roof almost immediately following the 1962 Supreme Court decision that ended teacher-led prayer in public schools. — Glenn Beck

Prayer In Public Schools Quotes By Shunryu Suzuki

If you want to study Zen, you should forget all your previous ideas and just practice zazen and see what kind of experience you have in your practice. That is naturalness. — Shunryu Suzuki

Prayer In Public Schools Quotes By Wendy Kaminer

Jerry Falwell knows who caused the terrorist attack on America: the ACLU. "The ACLU's got to take a lot of blame for this," he declared on the 700 Club, because, he explained, the ACLU, abetted by the federal courts is responsible for "throwing God out of the public square (and) the public schools."This is a familiar charge and a false one. God is still present in the public schools, where students are free to pray, alone or in groups, so long as their prayers aren't officially sponsored and don't infringe on anyone's freedom not to pray. — Wendy Kaminer

Prayer In Public Schools Quotes By Thom Yorke

If you're bored of the songs, you're bored of the songs. There's not much you can do. — Thom Yorke

Prayer In Public Schools Quotes By Jason L. Riley

So in addition to being overly reliant on politicians, blacks typically have poor political representation. "Pollsters have long known of the remarkable gap between the leaders and the led in black America," wrote Harvard professor Henry Louis Gates Jr. A 1985 survey found that most blacks favored the death penalty and prayer in public schools while most black leaders opposed these things. Most blacks opposed school busing, while most black leaders favored it. Three times as many blacks opposed abortion rights as their leaders did. Indeed, on many key social issues, blacks are more conservative than whites.31 — Jason L. Riley

Prayer In Public Schools Quotes By William Murray, 1st Earl Of Mansfield

The expenses of the paperwork and court fees involved in pursuing the appeal through the courts were not too high. In fact, as I recall, removing prayer from U.S. public schools cost less than $20,000 ... no Christian organization filed a brief in support of our opponents. — William Murray, 1st Earl Of Mansfield

Prayer In Public Schools Quotes By Gerald R. Ford

I believe that prayer in public schools should be voluntary. It is difficult for me to see how religious exercises can be a requirement in public schools, given our Constitutional requirement of separation of church and state. I feel that the highly desirable goal of religious education must be principally the responsibility of church and home. I do not believe that public education should show any hostility toward religion, and neither should it inhibit voluntary participation, if it does not interfere with the educational process. — Gerald R. Ford

Prayer In Public Schools Quotes By Halle Berry

When I'm rested, I'm at my best. — Halle Berry

Prayer In Public Schools Quotes By Elizabeth Gilbert

First spouses, I have learned, don't ever really go away
even if you aren't speaking to them anymore. They are phantoms who dwell in the corners of our new love stories, never entirely vanishing from sight, materializing in our minds whenever they please, offering up unwelcome comments or bits of painfully accurate criticism. — Elizabeth Gilbert

Prayer In Public Schools Quotes By George Herbert Mair

The reading of the ancients awakened new delight in the melody and beauty of language: men became intoxicated with words. The practice of rhetoric was universal and it quickly coloured all literature. It — George Herbert Mair

Prayer In Public Schools Quotes By Bo Burnham

Poetic talent is really easy to fake when thy sentences doth no f-king sense make. — Bo Burnham
