America adrift

Erin McMillan, Charger Staff

The leaders of this country have been horribly misled.

They shout out about separation of church and state and blindly believe it’s what everyone wants.

The majority of people I know want God to be allowed back into our schools.

These same leaders are the most horrfied and shocked when school shootings, teen pregancies, suicides, alcoholism, and drug addictions occur among us.

These actions are no suprise considering a vast number of people don’t even believe that there is a right and wrong.

What is so bad about endoring religion for schools? If the chosen religion isn’t the one you would pick, then just do your own thing, and if you don’t want to have anything to do with any of it, then don’t

It’s simple. Endoring religion would only have advantages.

For starters, it would give people a set standard or morals and ethics. That alone would eliminate many problems.
Think about it; we would raise our standards and essentially keep our country from going down the drain.

If we could have classes of religious studies and if our teachers and principals could openly pray, we would have less school violence, sex, drugs, and drinking.

These and other activities wouldn’t be at all desireable.

It’s painfully obvious that our generation needs help, and the first step to obtaining it should be allowing God to have some control in our education system.
