Has anyone successfully fought the Life Choices Program in schools?
This is a snip of an email I received from a disgusted teacher.

"Once again, the schools and Calvary Chapel have teamed up to bring you the word of God. Only this time, they have help from Officer Friendly of the Palm Bay Police and Andretti's.

Pamplets have been printed and have been handed out at schools. Emails have been sent asking teachers to "encourage" kids to go. Buses are provided by Palm Bay police and each kid who goes will receive not only the word of Jesus but two hours free at Andretti's
Thrill Park.

The school says it's secular but Calvary Chapel has been nothing but honest in stating it's NOT and the Life Choices is Life Choices Ministries. The $2000 to pay for it is from donations BUT the buses are paid for by you and me and the schools are promoting it."

1. ARGH!
What the hell? No way that can be legal, let alone moral.

3. We got the abstinence creeps kicked out of our schools
because they were just plain lying their sorry fundy asses off. They are trying to get back in though with a new "Less Lies More Bullshit" program.

It never stops.
