PARENTS GIVE UP THEIR RIGHTS
when they drop off the children at public school., says Federal District Judge Melinda Harmon ruling against parents suing a Texas school district. Their son was questioned by Child Protection Specialists (CPS) without their knowledge or consent. Their son was strip searched by a female worker looking for signs of paddling. Wall Street Journal 10/8/96.

Remember the terrible event in Pennsylvannia in 1995 when school district power went so far as to forcibly do a vaginal inspection. The girls were held down and spreadeagled on table while school district power and authority overrode all parental protection of their children. Although the girls screamed for release, the appointed people continued to do their dirty work on the girls. It took two months for that story to break the silent treatment, the stonewall of powerful school forces and media to reach national news. Even then it didn't get much coverage. Parents don't think it will happen to them. Newspaper editors don't think it can happen in their town, so why alert the people that such things are happening somewhere else, they seem to say. "It's not going to happen here, so I don't have to take steps to prevent it." said, one smug school district person. That happened somewhere else. It was a freak case. No need to make a big deal of it. The essential opinion of school people in Pennsylvannia is to say the school district was within its rights to do what they did to those sixth grade girls! Parents, do you believe that? Do you agree with that?

SEX ABUSE teaching given to first grade girls and boys behind parents' backs in WFISD for eight years. School board approved it. Esteemed psychologists approved of it. They thought that was a good thing to do. So they took their liberty to hide what they were doing from parents while they disturbed little girls relationships with their own mommy and daddy. To the credit of some principals, some of them did deem it right and proper to inform parents. Some did not. Those who did not were fully supported by the adminstration and newspaper who chose not to run any article on it. Dads who complained were told, "You're the only one to complain in eight years." Parents, divided we fall. Without a common source of information, we will continue to have the wool pulled over our eyes by the school system when they deem it appropriate.

PARENTS GIVING UP CHILDREN'S EMOTIONS TO STATE COUNSELORS
U.S. News and World Report, May 24, 1997 says school counselors may take your child out of class at any time for personal counseling. One child who was subjected to such state mandated counseling came back crying. Parents complain, but school system floods the media with justifications. Texas has also begun a new "counseling" ministry in state schools, its a self-esteem program required by law as of this year. Do you know what values those counselors are using to manipulate your children? There is a wealth of information available on the new Self-Esteem curriculum. Read about it from a Christian point of view. The state is now trying to fully justify itself in taking over the emotions of our children as the responsibility of the state.
POLICE DRAG BOY IN TO OFFICE FOR WEARING HIS ROSARY
"You can wear a marijuana leaf but you can't wear a rosary" said Pam Harrison in response to the school officials and police. Pam is the mother of Jerry Roberstson who was drug in by police for wearing his rosary. Pam and her husband were surprised by the school response to their son's effort at keeping his life straight.

David and Jerry, two Roman Catholic boys were told by school officials that their rosary was contraband. They did not know the police officiers would drag them in for wearing a rosary. A rosary is one symbol of Roman Catholic prayer. It is considered contraband by New Caney, Texas school officials. The high school principal said it was a gang symbol and ordered the two boys to quit wearing the rosary where other people could see it. The two boys became interested in the rosary after a confirmation class at their church. page 7A, Times Record News, Wichita Falls, Tx May 22, 1997.

PRAYER IN SCHOOLS APPROVED AGAIN
A Baptist minister's drive for prayer in the public schools has been approved by the Orleans Parish School Board. The Rev. Thomas Taylor, pastor of Galilee Baptist Church and his congregation applauded the unanimous approval by the school board.
Bill Bowers, member of school board, said, "We are not going to solve many of the problems we face in our schools if we leave God out of the equation."
The board's resolution parallels a state law that permits student-led prayer in the classroom.

TEACHERS TELL OF PRESSURE TO ALTER GRADES
Dallas schoolteachers say they are regularly pressured to change students' grades...The message being sent to teachers is they have to conform to the political system above them to keep their jobs...they should only have to do a good job of teaching,...instead of doing political conformity with the powers that be over them. Too many people concerned about image and appearances instead of God and truth is what's ruining schools. "It looks bad for a principal if toomany students are failing," said Mr. Hiscox. "Principals are often evaluated by the success or failure of students in their school." Parents, pay attention! What is success or failure? What do those words mean? Mostly its statistics on the state level and national level for the pursuit of state and federal money. It's not nearly so tied to the progress of learning as you think. It is much more tied to teaching standardized tests and getting money by the administration. Read more, learn what's happening. Quit taking every thing the administra tion prints as the whole truth and nothing but the truth. See the Dallas Morning News, 27A, May 14, 1997
MOMENT OF SILENT REFLECTION ALLOWED IN SCHOOL
Wow! A moment of silent reflection finally allowed!?
Schools required to open each day with a moment of "silent reflection". A law for the state of Georgia is the first in the nation since 1940 to survive a federal appeals court review. The 11th U.S. District Court gave a unaminous consent to the law. The article I read did not mention who attacked the law and tried to have it repealed by the courts. Remember folks, it is usually the ACLU who fights against these things. Remember too, that it is supposed to be we the people who decide how and what our children are taught. Reject the ACLU opinion of how to raise up your children, and raise them up the way scripture says. If it's what God says to do, that's what we should do. Who shall we fear, man or God? Take care of your children. Bryan College Station Eagle, May 8, 1997, page A3.
PARENTS DENIED CHOICE of learning place for their children. We pay the money for all those administrators, but we can't have a choice of what our children learn. Ron Wilson gave up on a bill to give parents the right to send their children to the school of their choice, using their own money, because there was not enough parents supporting the bill. Parents, the state takes your money to educate your children, sometimes endoctrinate your children with ideas different from your own values. How long will you let strangers dictate to you what and where your children shall learn? Associated Press , Bryan College Station Eagle, May 7, 1997, page A14
CHRISTIAN BIBLE BASED HELP FOR CHILDREN DENIED BUT MEN'S OPINIONS OF CURRENT FAD PSYCHOLOGY PERMITED in our schools. Philosophies of men, understandings called psychology, and the religious tenets of humanism are given access to children in public school while any age old ideas from scripture are rejected. See Bryan College Station Eagle, page 1A, May 12, 1997. Eagle editorial board totally against introducing any Bible teaching into the children's classroom. Page A14 . Bryan College Station Eagle, May 14. Guess who controls the press. Not the Christian parents, but an editorial board who are pushing to keep our schools ignoring God.

SUPREME COURT REJECTS STUDENT-LED PRAYER In a 6-3 decision, the U.S. Supreme Court proclaimed that high school students may not be permitted to lead in prayer before high school football games. In the Court’s dissenting opinion, Chief Justice William Rehnquist rightly said that the decision “bristles with hostility to all things religious in public life.” Agreeing in the dissenting opinion were Justices Scalia and Thomas.

AMERICANS IGNORANT OF SCIENCE AND HISTORY As if to top the recent expose of Americans’ ignorance of our nation’s history, the National Science Foundation has published a survey of our knowledge of the rudiments of science. More than half the population thinks that early humans lived at the time of dinosaurs, which scientists estimate to have lived 60 million years before man. The same percentage do not know that it takes the earth a year to orbit the sun, while 36% believe astrology (the study of the influence of the constellations and their positions on one’s life) is valid and scientific.

HOMOSEXUALS TARGET TEXAS SCHOOLS The Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network (GLSEN), who sponsored a Massachusetts workshop that exploded into a national scandal because it used taxpayer dollars to teach children how to engage in homosexual acts, have made public schools in the South (Texas is one) a priority in their nationwide quest to have homosexuality taught in classrooms. Established in 1994 and now with 85 chapters nationwide, GLSEN describes itself as the nation’s largest organization combating anti-homosexual bias in America’s schools. GLSEN caught the eye of concerned parents last March by sponsoring a workshop that gave educators and children, some as young as age 12, descriptions of homosexual acts laced with graphic language and diagrams. Another class criticized “the religious right” and featured a video that likened the views of conservative Christians toward homosexuals with those of the Nazis against the Jews. Source: Don Hinkle: “Schools in the South listed as homosexual activist group’s target.”

NO TO DEATH TAXES! The House of Representatives voted overwhelmingly to end death taxes by a vote of 279 to 136 in June. Even 65 Democrats joined in to repeal what is one of the most unfair taxes on the books. The death tax confiscates anywhere from 37%-55% of the person’s estate when he or she dies, instead of allowing them to pass a legacy on to their families. That is not only the highest tax rate in the tax code, it is also double taxation (a tax on already taxed items). Rep. Sam Johnson (R-TX) said, “Americans simply don’t believe the IRS should operate a toll booth on the road to heaven." Source: Texas Straight Talk, 6/11/00

QUOTE OF THE MONTH "People who choose to be offended by others’ diverse attempts to gain the favor of the divine, simply because they pray differently, or not at all, should be exposed for the illiberal, intolerant, small-minded bigots they are, not catered to by the Supreme Court. The words ‘separation of church and state’ never appear in the Constitution, but the ‘free exercise’ of religion is our explicitly guaranteed birthright." Columnist Maggie Gallagher, Conservative Chronicle 7/5/00
