Will the Real Christians Stand Up

              “We’ve been covering this story now for a while to see

         the outcome of a speech three young ladies gave last week
         in their local high school. As you can hear from the crowd be-
         hind me, these students are passionate about having prayer
         put back in school,” the reporter commented.
              While the YouTube recordings played in the background,

         the reporter  continued,  “We predict that thousands of stu-
         dents will be in Tallahassee on December 1, and the outcome
         will either silence the students in other states or encourage stu-
         dents in other states to take a stand and do the same. I spoke
         with several students, and here’s what they had to say.”
              “How should we not have a say so when prayer is being

         removed from our schools?” Nick said.
              “But certain sources said they asked you,” the news re-
         porter said as he thrust the microphone in front of Nick.
              “They asked who? Not  us,” Nick said  sarcastically.  “We

         feel students in school should have a say whether we want
         prayer in our schools or not.
              “That’s the purpose for this peaceful march and protest,”
         Zion said as he jumped in front of the microphone. “The only
         one that would be offended by prayer and would want prayer
         to be taken out of school is Satan himself. That’s not an act of

         God; that’s an act of people that are governed by Satan. He
         has people in high positions to carry out his will.”
              Gaining control of the microphone once again, Reuben
         Tates continued. “To hear more of this story and to hear from
         more students who don’t agree with prayer being taken out

         of school, follow us on CNN.com. We have a voting poll on
         our CNN website, and we’re asking you, the people, to vote
         whether prayer should remain or be taken out of schools. This
         has been your roving reporter, Rueben Tates.
