With the temperature at our local schools, being one of political correctness instead of actual correctness, Mother’s across the Country should appreciate the Prayer below. The ‘New School Prayer’ has been sent around the internet for a few weeks, it is an interesting view and insight into a Country that has made political correctness  a more important attribute than moral code and conducts. The author is unknown, as is the validity of the claim a fifteen-year-old wrote this prayer. Should anyone know the author, or the story behind this piece, please send the information along, so this article may be properly attributed. No matter the age of the author, it bears a reprint, as well as serious thought into the motives of our government, and certainly ‘dinner table conversation.’

 WRITTEN BY A 15 yr. Old SCHOOL KID IN ARIZONA :

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 in Arizona wrote the attached

NEW School Prayer :

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
