W.D.Mich. 1965.) that it was permissible for students to pray over their lunch at school so long as no one knew they were praying - that is, they couldn't say words or move their lips, but they could pray only if no one knew about it!

David BartonThereโs a passage that I love in Romans 1. โฆ [I]t talks about homosexuality and it says that they will receive in their bodies the penalties of their behavior. โฆ The Bible [is] right every time โฆ and thatโs why AIDS has been something they havenโt discovered a cure for or a vaccine for. โฆ And that goes to what God says, โHey youโre going to bear in your body the consequences of this homosexual behavior.โ
