It’s called Christmas

Posted: December 23, 2010 - 6:57pm

Our country was founded under the principles and values of God and country.   It only took one voice to remove prayer from our schools.  The ACLU is now fighting to remove crosses from our nation’s cemeteries, and to remove Christmas from the classroom.  

We do not celebrate winter solstice, we celebrate Christmas.  We do not have holiday trees, we have Christmas trees.   We sing Christmas carols and we celebrate the birth of Christ. 

It is time for American’s to take a stand to fight for the values that this country was founded under.  American soldiers are fighting around the world to protect the freedoms so many of us take for granted, we need to fight to protect the country’s morality and values.

Eightrh / Ninth Commamdment

I would assume that you are trying to recall along the line of -

Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor.

stepping back, I don't think that Kris was trying to bear false witness. Kris got caught up in one of the internet fallacies.

Got to: http://www.snopes.com/politics/religion/cemetery.asp

which shows that what Kris was alluding to is incorrect. You may also want to look at the one about the ACLU objecting to a US Marine prayer session, so, go to:

http://www.snopes.com/politics/religion/marines.asp

We all get caught up in the one where we read something that we feel agrees with our personel position so we send it on without checking it out.

If you want to see some crosses and approximately 38 other religious symbols on headstones in a military cemetery, take a ride down to Camp Ripley and tour the Minnesota Veterens Cemetery. After visiting there, just maybe all of us, both liberal and conservative and anyone in between, realize what we have in the good old US of A and especially why!! Go ---- Army, Marines, Coast Guard, Air Force, National Guard and especially NAVY!!! Thank you all for defending our way of life!!!
