They Canceled the Lord’s Prayer at this School’s Graduation, And Then This Happened

We have become a nation of wimps and blowhards. Most of the time, the only people willing to stand up are those who wish to destroy the Christian foundations our nation was built upon. If there are people ready to fight, it is usually to silence the Christian majority.
It looked as though this would be the case once again in a small Ohio town. East Liverpool has traditionally had it’s choir sing the Lord’s Prayer at every graduation ceremony. But last year, a parent complained to the Freedom From Religion Foundation. They, in turn, sent a letter of complaint to the school board, which decided they would do better to spend their small budget on things other than lawyers.
But the student body had something else in mind.
Christian News reports:
The valedictorian of a high school in Ohio led his class in a recitation of the Lord’s Prayer during their graduation ceremony this past weekend after a musical version of the prayer that has traditionally been a part of the commencement for years was removed due to an atheist complaint.
Though these students may have been doing this to stand for tradition rather than for the prayer itself, we have to give them credit for the stand against tyranny. And we can all learn from such boldness in the face of oppression.
