Paul Harvey!

Folks this is the Month that we RE-TAKE AMERICA

********* Get Ready *********

Keep this going around the globe ... read it and forward every time you
receive it. We can't give up on this issue.

Paul Harvey and Prayer

Paul Harvey says:

I don't believe in Santa Claus, but I'm not going to sue somebody for
singing a Ho-Ho-Ho song in December. I don't agree with Darwin , but I
didn't go out and hire a lawyer when my high school teacher taught his
Theory of Evolution

Life, liberty or your pursuit of happiness will not be endangered because
someone says a 30-second prayer before a football game.

So what' s the big deal? It's not like somebody is up there reading the
entire book of Acts. They're just talking to a God they believe in and
asking him to grant safety to the players on the field and the fans going
home from the game.

But it's a Christian pr ayer, some will argue.

Yes, and this is the United States of America , a country founded on
Christian principles. According to our very own phone book, Christian
churches outnumber all others better than 200-to-1. So what would you expect
-- somebody chanting Hare Krishna?

If I went to a football game in Jerusalem, I would expect to hear a Jewish
prayer.

If I went to a soccer game in Baghdad, I would expect to hear a Muslim
prayer.

If I went to a ping pong match in China, I would expect to hear someone pray
to Buddha.

And I wouldn't be offended.
It wouldn't bother me one bit.
When in Rome ...

But what about the atheists? Is another argument.

What about them?
Nobody is asking them to be baptized. We're not going to pass the collection
plate. Just humor us for 30 seconds. If that's asking too much, bring a
Walkman or a pair of ear plugs. Go to the bathroom. Visi t the concession
stand. Call your lawyer!

Unfortunately, one or two will make that call. One or two will tell
thousands what they can and cannot do. I don't think a short prayer at a
football game is going to shake the world's foundations.

Christians are just sick and tired of turning the other cheek while our
courts strip us of all our rights. Our parents and grandparents taught us to
pray before eating; to pray before we go to sleep.

Our Bible tells us to pray without ceasing. Now a handful of people and
their lawyers are telling us to cease praying.

God, help us.
And if that last sentence offends you, well .. just sue me.

The silent majority has been silent too long. It's time we let that one or
two who scream loud enough to be heard that the vast majority don't care
what they want. It is time the majority rules! It's time we tell them, you
don't have to pray; you don't have to say the pledge of alle giance; you
don't have to believe in God or attend services that honor Him. That is your
right, and we will honor your right .. But by golly, you are no longer going
to take our rights away. We are fighting back .
and we WILL WIN!

God bless us one and all ... especially those who denounce Him, God bless
America, despite all her faults. She is still the greatest nation of all.

God bless our service men who are fighting to protect our right to pray and
worship God.

2007 will be the year the silent majority is heard and we put God back as
the foundation of our families and institutions... and our Military come
home from all the wars.

Keep looking up.

If you agree with this, please pass it on.

If not delete it.
