Texas School Board Adds Bible Class

ODESSA, Texas - The school board in this West Texas town voted unanimously to add a Bible class to its high school curriculum.
Hundreds of people, most of them supporters of the proposal, packed the board meeting Tuesday night. More than 6,000 Odessa residents had signed a petition supporting the class.
Some residents, however, said the school board acted too quickly. Others said they feared a national constitutional fight.
Barring any hurdles, the class should be added to the curriculum in fall 2006 and taught as a history or literature course. The school board still must develop a curriculum, which board member Floy Hinson said should be open for public review.
The board had heard a presentation in March from Mike Johnson, a representative of the Greensboro, N.C.-based National Council on Bible Curriculum in Public Schools, who said that coursework designed by that organization is not about proselytizing or preaching.
But People for the American Way and the American Civil Liberties Union have criticized the council, saying its materials promote religion.
Johnson said students in the elective class would learn such things as the geography of the Middle East and the influence of the Bible on history and culture.
"How can students understand Leonardo da Vinci's 'Last Supper' or Handel's 'Messiah' if they don't understand the reference from which they came?" Johnson said. The group's Web site says its curriculum has received backing in 292 school districts in 35 states.
In Frankenmuth, Mich., a similar proposal led to a yearlong controversy before the school board voted in January not to offer such a course.
Maintenant on a besoin la presence de Dieu dans les colleges au Etat-Unis. Les Americains oublient que sans la presence de Dieu il n'y pas de success. Que Dieu les benisse.

Malheureusement, la VIOLENCE est une endémie meurtrière dans notre merveilleux pays d'adoption. Même là où les parents chrétiens croient trouver l'atmosphère spirituel idéal pour leurs précieuses progénitures.

États-Unis - Fusillade dans une université chrétienne de Californie

Cher mouniste Marlan,
Si vous nous visitez aujourd'hui, acceptez mes voeux d'espoir pour un futur où plus de rachetés feront la queue pour claironner la gloire du Christ Ressuscité en choeur sur les pelouses des universités partout dans le monde.
Sinon, les pierres s'alignent en masse pour assurer la relève. En fait, des cailloux font la une depuis quelques décades, face aux exigences des agents de l'athéisme et du satanisme.
Nous sommes maintenant à l'âge où les grosses pierres devraient élever leur voix en harmonie pour implorer la miséricorde de l'Éternel.
Pourtant eux, comme nous les chrétiens, continuons à afficher l'indifférence aux valeurs qui nous auraient ouvert les oreilles et le coeur d'El Shaddai.
Que sa grâce sauve Haïti !
Joyeuses Pâques !
