RSSTake THIS!

Heads up courtesy of Stop The ACLU:
The senior class at a southern Kentucky high school gave their response Friday night to a federal judge’s order banning prayer at commencement.About 200 seniors stood during the principal’s opening remarks and began reciting the Lord’s Prayer, prompting a standing ovation from a standing-room only crowd at the Russell County High School gymnasium.
The thunderous applause drowned out the last part of the prayer.
The revival like atmosphere continued when senior Megan Chapman said in her opening remarks that God had guided her since childhood. Chapman was interrupted repeatedly by the cheering crowd as she urged her classmates to trust in God as they go through life.
The challenge made the graduation even better because it unified the senior class, Chapman said.
“It made the whole senior class come together as one and I think that’s the best way to go out,” said Chapman, who plans to attend the University of the Cumberlands with her twin sister Megan.
The graduation took place about 12 hours after a federal judge blocked the inclusion of prayer as part of Russell County High School’s graduation ceremonies.
No judge can tell a person how or when to pray and these students are to be commended for not succumbing to attempted judicial tyranny and a student who didn’t even have enough strength of his/her convictions to put his/her name to the complaint.
