Groups giving out bibles at Public County Schools in Florida

When I heard about this last night I was aghast that the counties were allowing it to happen.

They said "we wanted to avoid a lawsuit" but if theist groups are allowed to give out material does this mean that Satanic groups are allowed to give out information? What about atheists? muslims? extremist groups??? Where does it end?

The dumb asses, along with the dumb ass judges failed to see what can of worms were opened here.

Idea!!!

 

 

 

                    Let's encourage the Scientologists  and Muslims to put out their sacred books under the exact same conditions. That should be wonderful for the fair minded Christians of Florida.

I personally think that this sort of thing should be kept out of the schools. What kinda of judge allowed this to happen? I mean, where do you draw the line?

"Anything that contains pornographic material, any references to advertising, alcohol, tobacco, illegal drugs, or anything disruptive to school district and their educational facility" will not be allowed, according to Diego "Woody" Rodriguez.

I see. So any thing that is "disruptive to school district and their educational facility" isn't allowed? That's quite a broad term. The school could say any specific religion is disruptive in order to keep them out of the schools.

How about handing out good

How about handing out good stuff like "Origin Of The Species" and "The God Delusion".

I am not clicking on that link. I could have CIA grade virus protection but Fucks News is a virus factory.

Look at how fox news tried

Look at how fox news tried to make atheists look bad.

Their web page makes you think that the atheists are going to distribute X rated books to the kids. WHAT? Assholes are lying to the public.

From the Free Thought website:

Books, pamphlets, and brochures from the Freedom From Religion Foundation, American Atheists, and the Secular Student Alliance are on their way today to Central Florida and distribution will begin as soon as the promised written permission is received from the School Board and volunteers are cleared to come on campus.  Some items being considered for distribution are “An X-Rated Book: Sex & Obscenity in the Bible,” “Ten Common Myths About Atheists,” as well as literature about starting student led secular organizations on campus and books by atheists Dan Barker and Madalyn Murray O’Hair among others.

The title of the book is "An X-rated book: Sex and Obscenity in the Bible".

If you watched the short interview the reporter tries to make something out of nothing by asking if he thought it is wrong for christians to do this then why are you doing it.
