High School Cheerleaders in Trouble for Bible Verse Banners

[Gemini Cricket]

Religious cheerleaders designated to a certain area now. Most likely near where liberals were sequestered when they wanted to protest Bush.

A public high school in Georgia that recently banned banners containing Bible verses from being displayed at its football games will designate an area roughly 50 yards away from the field for cheerleaders, students and others to erect signs with religious themes, the school's principal said Wednesday.
The decision comes after a group of cheerleaders were told they could no longer display the religious banners — a mainstay at the school for eight years — on the football field at Lakeview-Fort Oglethorpe High School in Fort Oglethorpe, Ga. The ruling caused an uproar in the community.

Especially if the banner was made out of 3/4" plywood

In a recent satire, Richard Dawkins wrote a pastiche of P.G. Wodehouse, in which the Bertie Wooster equivalent sees the infamous bus slogan ("There is no God, so just relax and enjoy life" - that one prompted a heated thread here some time ago) and garbles it while trying to repeat it to the Jeeves character:

"There's no bally God, so put a sock in it and have a gargle with the lads"

Truly T-shirt worthy.
