For years Atheists
have been handing out their version of history (Black Hole and such)!
Were we go again, 3%
of the people ruling the 97% of the people!
FAITH????
What does the 3% of
the United States of American people know about FAITH, and who cares what they
think?
You tell 97% of the
county not to stand for our flag, not to kneel in protest, not to place our
FAITH on our lawn
and we cannot give
one of our books to someone to be able to, or not to, read for the next 5 to 10
years?
GIVE ME A BREAK!
How about if every
prisoner received the Quran and the Bible with a free help guide to help
explain each book?
What about this
Judge, can she give a prisoner the Quran?
You better believe
it, she should!

An atheist group
that has counted Ron Reagan Jr. among its members says it was inappropriate for
a judge to give a Bible to Amber Guyger, the former Dallas police officer who
was convicted this week of murdering her neighbor.
The Freedom from
Religion Foundation (FFRF) — the atheist group for which the 61-year-old son of
former President Ronald Reagan has appeared in television ads — filed a formal
complaint Thursday with the Texas State Commission on Judicial Conduct, FOX 4 of
Dallas-Fort Worth reported.
The Wisconsin-based
group objected to Judge Tammy Kemp giving one of her Bibles to Guyger.
She did so after the
former officer was sentenced to 10 years in prison on Wednesday for the
shooting death of Botham Jean, a 26-year-old accountant.
“You just need a
tiny mustard seed of faith,” Kemp said to a tearful Guyger, handing the Bible
to her before the convicted former officer left the courtroom.
“You start with
this.”
Kemp also hugged
Guyger — as did a brother of the murder victim, in actions that some observers
said showed compassion for the newly convicted defendant.
But in a letter on
Thursday to the Texas commission, the atheist group objected to what it termed
the judge’s “proselytizing actions,” saying they “overstepped judicial
authority” and were “inappropriate” and “unconstitutional.”
“It is perfectly
acceptable for private citizens to express their religious beliefs in court,”
the letter states later, “but the rules are different for those acting in a
governmental role.”
