WHAT HAPPENED TO OUR SCHOOLS

What follows was sent to me. I didn't write it but it rings so true...it can't be ignored or explained away. Our society and culture is corroding because we have asked God to step aside. That's how I see it and I have no doubt that we need Him involved more than ever...

Dear God:

Why didn't you save the school children at ?. ..Moses Lake, Washington, Bethel, Alaska, Pearl, Mississippi, West Paducah, Kentucky, Stamp, Arkansas,Jonesboro, Arkansas, Edinboro, Pennsylvania, Fayetteville, Tennessee, Springfield, Oregon, Richmond, Virginia, Littleton, Colorado, Taber, Alberta, Canada, Conyers, Georgia, Deming, New Mexico, Fort Gibson, Oklahoma, Santee, California, El Cajon, California and Blacksburg, VA ?

How did this get started?...Let's see, I think it started when Madeline Murray O'Hare complained. She didn't want any prayer in our schools. And we said, OK. Then, someone said you better not: Read the Bible in school; the Bible that says "thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not steal, And love your neighbors as yourself," And we said, OK... Then someone said Teachers and principals better not discipline our children when they misbehave. and the school administrators said no faculty member in this school better touch a student when they misbehave because we don't want any bad publicity, And we surely don't want to be sued. And we accepted their reasoning...Then someone said, let's let our daughters have abortions if they want, and they won't even have to tell their parents. And we said, that's a grand idea. Then some of our top elected officials said, 'It doesn't matter what we do in private as long as we do our jobs. And we said, It doesn't matter what anybody, including the President, does in private as long as we have jobs and the economy is good....

And the entertainment industry said, let's make TV shows and movies that promote profanity, violence and illicit sex...and let's record music that encourages rape, drugs, murder, suicide, and satanic themes...And we said, it's just entertainment and it has no adverse effect and nobody takes it seriously anyway,So go right ahead.
------------------
Now we're asking ourselves why our children have no conscience, why they don't know right from wrong, and why it doesn't bother them to kill strangers, classmates or even themselves.

Undoubtedly, If we thought about it long and hard enough,we could figure it out. I'm sure it has a great deal to do with...
"WE REAP WHAT WE SOW"

WHY IS IT OUR CHILDREN CAN NOT READ A BIBLE IN SCHOOL, BUT CAN IN PRISON!
