------------------------------ Elderly visitors to federally funded meals at a Georgia senior citizen’s center aren’t allowed to pray Oppressive Government: Feds Tell GA Old Folks They Can’t Pray Before Meals *By* *Warner Todd Huston* Monday, May 10, 2010 Big Brother says elderly visitors to federally funded meals at a Georgia senior citizen’s center aren’t allowed to pray<http://www.wsbtv.com/news/23495797/detail.html>to that absurd, dangerous Christian God of theirs. Obama’s Big Brother government contends that since it has paid for their meals the government has the right to slam its iron boot heel down on the necks of those seasoned citizens that dare to engage in such an apostasy toward the state. Seem absurd? Well it is but that is what happens when the feds roll into town and begin to hand out money. They feel the right to dictate what everyone is allowed or not allowed to do and in the case of Port Wentworth’s Ed Young Senior Citizens Center near Savannah that is to tell these old folks that they are not allowed to pray before a meal. New Uncle Sam is a crusader against religion…Well, at least one religion, anyway There are federal “guidelines” to observe, after all and the federal government’s rules say none of that ridiculous Christian stuff will go on if the feds supply even a penny of funding. Old folks that want to pray are banned from doing so and if they don’t like it, why they can go hungry because the new Uncle Sam is a crusader against religion. Well, at least one religion, anyway. You see, while Obama’s federal government is ever ready to get tough with Georgia’s elderly and to put a stop to all that praying nonsense, it is also the same government that at federal expense is installing ritual footbaths in airports and universities to mollify Muslims. Not only that but the same federal government sees no reason to stop bombers from easily boarding planes so that they can make an escape to a foreign nation after a failed attempt to kill untold hundreds of Americans. But damn the torpedoes and full speed ahead to prevent those dangerous old folks in the middle of Georgia from daring to pray to that subversive Christian God! The nerve of those elderly Americans daring to observe their Christian cultural heritage, a heritage that helped build this country. It’s an outrage, don’t you think? So, it’s freedom from religion as far as Obama’s government is concerned. I mean these old folks are probably as dangerous to the state as can be! Thank Gaia that Obama is quashing their subversive activities. Praise be it to the state, thanks be to The One, and pass the potatoes. The Obammessiah shall provide all our wants. But, remind me… has he walked on water yet? ------------------------------ CFP Tools Share21<http://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.canadafreepress.com%2Fprintpage.php&t=Canada%20Free%20Press%20-%20Printer%20Friendly%20Version&src=sp> | More <http://www.addthis.com/bookmark.php?v=250&username=bthom62> (0) *Reader Feedback*<http://www.canadafreepress.com/index.php/site/comments/oppressive-government-feds-tell-ga-old-folks-they-cant-pray-before-meals/>| Subscribe<http://www.canadafreepress.com/eesystem/index.php/site/CFP-subscriptions/>| Print friendly <http://www.canadafreepress.com/printpage.php> | Contact Us<[email protected]?subject=dear%20canada%20free%20press>| Send this page to a friend! <http://tafmaster.com/taf/18403/255648/> | Warner Todd Huston Bio<http://canadafreepress.com/index.php/members/22982/Huston/> *Warner Todd Huston* Most recent columns<http://www.canadafreepress.com/index.php/members/22982/Huston/> *Warner Todd Huston’s thoughtful commentary, sometimes irreverent often historically based, is featured on many websites such as renewamerica.us, townhall.com, opinioneditorials.com, and americandaily.com, among many, many others.
