Valedictorian Rips Up Speech And Recites Lord's Prayer

[silverpig]

Here's another way to think about it. Just separate the person from the role.

The person has the right to free speech. The role of valedictorian does not. The person is allowed to assume the role of valedictorian, but then is bound by the conditions of the role.

And where is that established? Are you assuming that the valedictorian is a representative of the school for the purposes of the law?

when addressing the entire graduation during the ceremony after being invited on stage to do so? of course he is.

I have a right to not hear about gay marriage by your standard.

Yea, you can turn your tv off, put down the newspaper, or close your browser. Was gay marriage a topic presented by a valedictorian at a recent high school graduation you attended?

So if he stood up there and made racial slurs could the school be sued like it could if it was the principal?

Isn't that a given?

What would he be the valedictorian of, if not the school class?

That would be a breach of the role, but I wouldn't put it past someone 😛

 

[disappoint]

Maybe an athiest Valedictorian will rip up their speech and start reading a passage from Darwin's Origin of Species book to protest the introduction of creationism into Bio class.

I'd standing ovulate to that!

Spoiler

But I digest. Glad I'm went to pubic skool and became illiterate. Also sometimes I masturbate words into my speech because forgive them pops for they know not what they do.

 

[raildogg]

Wasn't it also in the Bible that those who pray or show off their religion the loudest are not really religious; that the ones who are really religious don't show it to others.

So in other words, maybe the Bible is saying instead of going to church, why not be truly religious rather than showing.

But, in this modern day and age, the things on the surface count more - not what is actually real.

 

[Darwin333]

Add in global warming and other BS. Fair is fair.

Considering that you seem to be an "extremist Christian" I would assume you would want to add in basically all science.

Did you even read what his "standard" is or are you just having a difficult time comprehending it? If its the latter I am sure we can help you out.

 

[Darwin333]

Also the students in the audience don't have a right to not be offended and hear prayers.

A-fucking-men!!!

Ok, now that we know that you grasp that concept could you please explain why the fuck you make dozens of threads about your offense to people/corporations/governments not kowtowing to your (and yours alone) religion? You make that statement about someone reading a Christian prayer but you have the nerve to make a thread bitching and crying because Google said happy holidays????

sure the school could be sued. anyone can be sued for anything at any time. whether the school should be liable is the interesting question. for me, depends on if the school knew or should have known beforehand that an invited speaker would go off of what they should be talking about.

The standard is the First Amendment's Establishment Clause. The First Amendment has no clause dealing with marriage or science.

Anyone remember this? So this player used his time during the nation anthem to pray and the righties had a bird. So what was the difference? He was Moooooooslim!

I didn't have a bird. Whatever that means.

Why don't you make your own thread you moron. This is about Christians under attack.

Point being is a Muslim student did this at graduation and read a Muslim prayer you would be screaming SHARIA

Point being you're still a moron and anti-Christian bigot.

Attack on Christians not found. Same rules that applied to Christian Valedictorian would have applied to another student of a different religious belief.

Do you really believe that? If someone of another religion did it then most of these groups probably wouldn't do anything because it's not Christians.

They have a beef with Christianity but not the other religions.

To a Christian Taliban member such as yourself, everything that impedes the implementation of Christian Shara law is "anti-Christian".

Any you lost any credibility you had.

 

[Jaepheth]

So... the valedictorian was supposed to write a speech, but then decided that their work was no good at the last minute and opted to plagiarize instead?

What a great way to represent what's supposed to showcase the best your school has to offer. You just gave your teachers a slap in the face in order to give a shout out to your personal beliefs.

Bullshit.

The road to Heaven is not the beaten path. Stop whining like a little baby.
