Before It’s NewsWhat is our nation becoming? Christians are being persecuted left and right these days from the military to school systems. It is clear most Americans are still sleeping at the wheel when things like this go without coverage and instead we are presented with softball news or sport statistics on what is suppose to be Main Stream News.

MINNEAPOLIS – A pastor who works as a school bus driver during the week recently lost his job for praying with the children who ride his bus.
George Nathaniel, 49, is the pastor of both the Elite Church of the First Born and Grace Missionary Baptist Church in Minneapolis. He has worked for the Burnsville-Eagan-Savage School District for the past two years, and was hired by Durham School Services, which provides the drivers.
As Nathaniel is a Christian, he says that he likes to give the opportunity for students to sing and pray to start off their day on a positive note.
“We start out with a song,” he told the StarTribune. “Then each person will pray if they want to pray. If they don’t want to pray, they don’t have to pray. Then I will pray and ask them if they want to join me in prayer. Just give them something constructive and positive to go to school with.”
However, when an unidentified individual recently complained about Nathaniel’s prayers, Durham School Services issued him a warning and placed him on a different route.
Nonetheless, the situation did not detour the pastor.
“I let them know I am a pastor and I am going to pray,” he said. [ FULL ARTICLE ]
Christians Are Clearly Being Singled Out
Was this bus driver driving for a public school or some religous school, because I don`t think that it is right if he was praying and all of that stuf if he was driving for a public school system. If he was driving for a church or some religous outing or religous school then good. By the way, I am not anti religon or anti christian but I just think that all of this praying and all should stay out of public schools and should stay in the more religously directed schools and churches….. I can guarentee that if it was a moslem doing his chantings that every one would have a major hissy fit over it. Keep religeon out of the public school system.
No, if it had been muslim prayer the school bus company would have tolerated it.
Perhaps fullfreedom, hell wouldn`t it be great to see those blasphemous bastards like the jew, muslems, and christians get together and praise the lord because – after all – they all do say that their god is the only god. That is why I call all of those group religeons just a buch of cheap blasphemous fear mongering bastards. Like I said before ” there is only one god ” and imoho is too honest to talk about behind his back like groups religeons do and use religeons as a excuse. I see god in everything natural unlike group religeons do.
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech.
Just one more instance of religious persecution in Amerika.
Agreed. the push for anti-religion by the marxist u.s. govt is tantamount to religious discrimination. alot of people argue that there is no God/Jesus/Christianity???………… i use the inverse theorem of justification to ask the question: if there is no God/Jesus?christianity……then why is it those descriptions are actively being attacked by and are a threat to the nwo?. the fact is they do exist and their existence will always threaten the nwo/devil/ and the legion of demons.
Once again, what happened to God’s country? We have turned our backs on God and he has turned his back on us. Once you get rid or religion and morality, all hell breaks loose.
The demonization of anything Christian will continue to escalate.
Count on it.
