    Lord's Prayer





 BY A 15 yr. OLD SCHOOL KID   who got an A+ for this entry  (TOTALLY AWESOME)!    The Lord's Prayer       is not allowed in most   Public schools anymore   Because the word 'God' is mentioned.....   A kid in WINNIPEG 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 Provence .   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 

         Jesus said, 'If you are ashamed of me, I will be ashamed of you before my Father.'
