BREAKING - ACLU continues its crackdown on Christianity in America
Alabama school denies handing out Bibles to students

A public Alabama school has been in the cross-hairs of a potential ACLU lawsuit which claims the school violated the First Amendment when teachers handed out Bibles to students. The school district’s Superintendent, Barry Carroll, is speaking out about the claims, citing them as “inaccurate or false.” The ACLU was apparently notified by the parents of a few students. How they found out is still uncertain; whether the children came home with the Bibles or not. The parents claim the children took a copy of the Bible out of pressure to please their teachers and to fit in.

This isn’t the first time the elementary school has been targeted by the ACLU. They also accuse a fifth grade teacher, Jody Brown, of refusing to teach evolution and instead referring her students to the beliefs of creationism.

So then you would have no problem if they decided to hand out Qur'ans in schools? The First Amendment applies equally to all religions.

ACLU Forces Limestone County Schools to Revisit Policies on Religion

Athens— The American Civil Liberties Union is now involved in the separation of church and state in Limestone County Schools. This comes after a parent claimed staff members at an elementary school in Athens were handing out Bibles and promoting Creationism.

"I thought we had resolved the issue until yesterday," said Dr. Barry Carroll on Wednesday at a news conference.

In a nutshell, it's a small issue," said Carroll. "But it's a huge issue."

At the center is a table at Blue Springs Elementary School. School leaders say that's where they place materials donated to the school to be handed out to children. Students choose to pick them up or pass them by.

But one parent complained to the district that school staff -- one fifth grade teacher in particular -- was endorsing Creationism. Eventually, the parent contacted the ACLU, which sent a letter to Dr. Carroll.

"What they're doing regarding Bible distribution and the promotion of Creationism is a violation of the Constitution," said Allison Neal, a staff attorney for the ACLU in Montgomery.

Consider the doublespeak inherent throughout the "progressive" Goliath's flowery self-representation:

"The ACLU is our nation's guardian of liberty, working daily in courts, legislatures and communities to defend and preserve the individual rights and liberties that the Constitution and laws of the United States guarantee everyone in this country"

Now contrast that depiction with ACLU founder Roger Baldwin's candid vision:

"I am for socialism, disarmament, and, ultimately, for abolishing the state itself... I seek the social ownership of property, the abolition of the propertied class, and the sole control of those who produce wealth. Communism is the goal"

Ironic, isn't it? So much for "life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness." By combining straightforward segments from each ACLU rendering we arrive with an accurate portrayal. One that cuts through the doublespeak:

"The ACLU is...working daily in courts, legislatures and communities. Communism is the goal"

I really don't understand how handing out Bibles violates the First Amendment. pick

"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances."

If anyone can figure that out, please enlighten me!
