Interesting,

I heard it.

M.

 

 

 

 

 

Pray

if you want to!

 

CBS

and Couric et al must be in a panic and

rushing to reassure the White House that this is

not network policy--re: Andy Rooney's commentary

on prayer. 

Folks,

this is the year that 

we RE-TAKE AMERICA &

CANADA 

 

*********

Get 

Ready *********

Keep

this going around the  globe. Read it and

forward every time you receive it.. We 

can't give up on this issue. 

Andy

Rooney and  Prayer 

Andy

Rooney says: 

I

don't believe in Santa Claus, but I'm not going

to sue somebody for singing a Ho-Ho-Ho song in

December.  I don't agree with Darwin , but

I didn't go out and hire a lawyer when my high

school  teacher taught his Theory of

Evolution. 

Life,

liberty or your pursuit of happiness will not be

endangered because someone says a 

30-second prayer before a football game. So

what's the big deal?  It's not like

somebody is up there reading the entire Book of

Acts.  They're just talking to a God they

believe in and asking him to grant safety to the

players on the field and the fans going home

from the game. 

But

it's a Christian prayer,  some will

argue. 

Yes,

and this is the United States of America and

Canada , countries founded on Christian

principles.  According to our very own

phone book, Christian churches outnumber all

others better than 200-to-1.  So what would

you expect -- somebody chanting Hare

Krishna?  

If

I went to a football game in Jerusalem , I would

expect to hear a Jewish

prayer. 

If

I went to a soccer game in  Baghdad , I

would expect to hear a Muslim

prayer. 

If

I went to a ping pong match in China ,  I

would expect to hear someone pray to

Buddha. 

And

I wouldn't be offended. It

wouldn't bother me one bit.  

So

when in Rome.........  

But

what about the atheists? Is another

argument. 

What

about them? Nobody is asking them to be

baptized.  We're not going to pass the

collection plate. Just humour us for 30

seconds.   If that's asking too much,

bring a Walkman or a pair of ear plugs.  Go

to the bathroom.  Visit the concession

stand.  Call your

lawyer!  

Unfortunately,

one or two will make that call.  One or two

will tell thousands what they can and cannot do.

I don't think a short prayer at a football game

is going to shake the world's

foundations.  

Christians

are just sick and tired of turning the other

cheek while our courts strip us of  all our

rights.  Our parents and grandparents

taught us to pray before eating, to pray before

we go to sleep. Our

Bible tells us to pray without ceasing. 

Now a handful of people and their lawyers are

telling us to cease praying.  

God,

help us.  And if that last sentence offends

you, well, just sue me. 

The

silent majority has been silent too long. 

It's time we tell that one or two who scream

loud enough to be heard that the vast majority

doesn't care what they want.  It is time

that the majority rules!   It's time

we tell them, " You don't have to pray; you don't

have to say the Pledge of Allegiance; you don't

have to believe in God or attend services that

honour Him.  That is your right, and we

will honour your right; but by golly, you are no

longer going to take our rights away.  We

are fighting back, and we WILL

WIN! "  

God

bless us one and all...Especially those who

denounce Him,

God bless America and Canada , despite all our

faults, We are still the greatest nations of

all. God bless our service men who are fighting

to protect our right to pray and worship

God. 

 

Let's

make 2011

the

year the silent majority is heard and we put God

back as the foundation of our familie s and

institutions. And our military forces come home

from all the

wars. 

Keep

looking

up.  

If

you agree with this, please pass it

on.
