Agenda against religion

Editor:


No organization in America discriminates against religion more than the American Civil Liberties Union. This infamous group has launched a systematic war against religion in America. It has already won the following major battles:


Ban prayer in public schools. Ban nativity scenes. Ban prayer at graduation ceremonies. Ban the Ten Commandments. Ban teachers from having Bibles at their desks. Ban the Boy Scouts from public property.


What is the American Civil Liberties Union for? Just to name a few: support abortion on demand throughout pregnancy, support pro-homosexual school curriculums, support freedom to desecrate our flag, support partial-birth abortion, support censorship of the Ten Commandments and the Bible.


What is the American Civil Liberties Union against? Here are just a few: opposes abstinence-before-marriage sex education, opposes legalized school prayer, opposes parental consent laws, opposes religious displays in public, opposes prison terms for most crimes.


The American Civil Liberties Union has actually raided the American taxpayers’ wallets to the tune of millions of dollars in legal fees — awarded to them by liberal courts — in order to finance the union’s war against religion in America.


Here are just a few examples:


• San Diego handed over more than $950,000 in legal fees to the American Civil Liberties Union when it lost a legal battle over city support of the Boy Scouts, which the union calls a “religious organization.”


• The taxpayers of Alabama forked over $549,000 in legal fees after Chief Justice Ray Moore was forced out of office for displaying a monument of the Ten Commandments.


• Loudoun County, Virginia, taxpayers coughed up $106,918 in legal fees because public libraries were using computer software that kept children from viewing pornography. The American Civil Liberties Union actually got paid to force a county to supply children with pornography.


• Elkhart, Ind., gave up the fight for a Ten Commandments display on government property. The town didn’t have the funds to compete with the American Civil Liberties Union’s taxpayer-funded lawyer. (Even after Elkhart gave up the fight, a liberal judge still forced the town to pay the union $63,000).


I bet you never heard about any of these outrages from the pro-American Civil Liberties Union liberal, elite media.
