How proud would you be as a parent of this
student poet.............WOW.!!

BY A 15 yr. Old SCHOOL KID IN GEELONG VIC:

New Pledge of Allegiance (TOTALLY AWESOME)
!!!

Since the Pledge of Allegiance & The Lord's
Prayer are not allowed in most public schools anymore, because the word
'God' is mentioned....

A kid in Geelong Vic 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

If you aren't ashamed to do this,
please pass this on.

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

Not ashamed. Pass this on..

Sad, but political correctness has removed God from everything, lest we offend somebody. Jesus was the most politically uncorrect person I know. I wish to be more like him. So does this poem. Beautiful. Thanks for sharing!
