They hate you because of me - A federal civil-rights lawsuit is underway over the suspension by a school administrator of a Christian student on a day celebrating homosexuality. The day was called "Day of Silence" and took place on April 22. According to WorldNetDaily™ it was sponsored by the "Gay-Straighy Alliance."
The student wore a T-Shirt expressing what he thought about the event. The T-shirt said:
[On the front] Be Ashamed
Our School Embraced What God Has Condemned[On the back] Homosexuality is Shameful
Romans 1:27.
The Alliance Defense Fund, the legal group representing Poway High School student Chase Harper, said in a statement the young man's free-speech and religious rights were violated in April when he was suspended from school for one day for wearing the homemade T-shirt. According to the suit, a school administrator told the student: "Leave your faith in the car" when your beliefs might offend others.
The Great Separation continues.
