People in DeSoto County, Mississippi, are being urged to remain strong in their battle against those who want to stop prayers before high school football games. Parents and students did just that last Friday evening in defiance of legal threats against the tradition.
After hundreds of people in the stadium stood for the national anthem, the crowd recited the Lord's Prayer aloud to deliver a message to the atheist group Freedom From Religion Foundation -- the organization that threatened to sue if prayers over the public address system at sporting events did not end.
(Billy's Thoughts>>> While I see nothing wrong with prayer at high school football games I believe it is not the biggest issue. If the court allows prayer before these games is that going to change our culture or what is being taught in these schools during school hours. What is needed is for parents to remove their kids from these educational camps and for God to bring a spiritual and moral change to America which can only come through him. )
