Federal government bans
flag-folding recitations following one complaint
It is time for Christians to
say enough is enough
Dear Homer,
In
the latest attack on Christianity, the U.S. government has
banned the
flag-folding recitations at all 125 national cemeteries.
The banning came as the result of one complaint! The
situation is similar to that in which one person removed
prayer from schools.
This article from The Associated Press explains the
situation:
Complaints about religious content have led to a ban on
flag-folding recitations by Veterans Administration
employees and volunteers at all national cemeteries.
At
thousands of military burials, VA volunteers have folded
the American flag 13 times and recited the significance
of each fold to survivors. The 11th fold glorifies "the
God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.” The 12th glorifies
"God the Father, the Son and Holy Ghost."
Citing
a need for uniformity, the National Cemetery
Administration has prohibited unpaid VA volunteers as
well as employees from conducting the recital at all 125
national cemeteries.
American Legion attorney Rees Lloyd calls it "another
attempt by secularist fanatics to cleanse any reference
to God."
Following one complaint, the Veterans Administration has
made anti-Christian bigotry the law of the land. The U.S.
government has bowed to pressure from one radical
anti-Christian secularist.
Allowed
to stand, the action by the Veterans Administration, in
essence, means that anti-Christian bigotry is now the
accepted and approved law of the land.
