ever feel like this country is going to hell

[utmstudent]

I love this place, I just don't understand why some ppl try to make this place a communist run country.

I know a few marines that I graduated with and they all hate Cindy Sheehan. They say she's a nut. Pretty soon she'll be president.

Then ppl are saying they have a problem with "In God We Trust" on our money

Kids are getting in trouble and are told not to pray or say the pledge of allegiance in school

Ppl have problems with crossed being put up. Even on graveyards where they are a national symbol of morning. You know THE CROSS THE JESUS CHRIST WAS NAILED TO??!!

Then its getting bad with illegal immigrants getting into the country and because of all the liberals feel sorry for them, they are making a big deal about it so Bush has to do something. In a few years its prolly going to be legal for them to come over.

then we have a defense attorney going over to Iraq to defend sadam. I say we ban him from coming back.

then minorities.........well, I'll just hold my tongue here. the whole situation is pathetic and isn"™t even worth bringing up.

So basically what the hell is wrong with this country? I don't understand ppl.

I love the saying, " People question why God allows stuff like Columbine and Paducha to happen, but forget they kicked Godout ofthe schools".

then we have a defense attorney going over to Iraq to defend sadam. I say we ban him from coming back.

Dont get too riled up about this one. This is not his first case like this. He represented Slovidon Milosovic as well as others.[:'(]

Where kids can pray in school, they can also say the pledge with under god in there.

Huh? The cross is now the national symbol of mourning must have missed that session of Congress where that was passed.THe only thing I've read recently is where a Wiccan couldn't use his religious symbol on his tombstone in Arlington cemetary.

Double HUH?? You must include Bush in your broad brush of liberalism,right?

then minorities.........well, I'll just hold my tongue here. the whole situation is pathetic and isn"™t even worth bringing up.

Maybe you should hold your tongue could be the smartest thing you posted or have done so far. There are many minorities contributing a lot to this country, quite the broad brush your stroking.

I wouldn't say it is in writing, but well understood. You can go to China and put a cross in the ground and ask someone what it means and they would not hesitate to answer with a correct response. Why do you think the red cross uses it. I do take the attack on Christians very personal. I believe we live in a country that has freedom of religion, not freedom from it. Put up a star of David, no big deal. Put up a Buddhist sign, I don't care. Put up no religious symbol if you like, its your prerogative. But don't get pissed because I wear a cross around my neck. And yes, that has been banned in places as well. I know a teacher friend fired because she wore a cross necklace. She was a special ed aid and was working with the son of a witch. The witch kid wore his symbols every day in plane view, but was offended by the teachers aid. The school said, take it off of don't come back. She said as long as other religious symbols were excepted at the school, she will not. The school said the other symbols were not offending anyone. She said they were offending her. So they fired her. They could do it because she was not a contracted employee. Her lawyer is still fighting the case.[/align]

Thought the red cross was the symbol of hope.

Her lawyer is still fighting the case.

Hope she wins.
