McBAIN, Mich. (AP) – A northern Michigan public school district says it’s no longer asking that its next superintendent be a Christian after getting a letter from the American Civil Liberties Union. The ACLU wrote Tuesday to the McBain Rural Agricultural School, challenging the religious criteria included in its job posting for a new superintendent. The…

    “Mistakenly” included the Christian criteria?
    Sorry, I left my shovel and hip waders at home.

    He tells The Associated Press that he mistakenly included the Christian criteria

      It never ceases to amaze me how so-called christians will respond with lies when called out for their deceptions and illegal maneuvering.

        Even more amazing is the way they hijack a faith and simply rewrite the teachings to fit their agenda.

        Well, there is no express prohibition against lying, is there?

          thou shall not lie, it is a commandment and it is a rule in their bible

            But since none of them has actually read the bible, they wouldn’t know that.

              good point

            • Roctuna March 4th, 2015 at 19:04

              Yeah but they’re nailin’ the commandments up all over the place.

      • Larry Schmitt March 4th, 2015 at 18:53

        And I always thought bearing false witness (a fancy term for lying) was forbidden by one of the commandments. They lie all the time when it suits their purposes.

          You mean they are like everyone else?
          Fancy that – human nature being the same for people regardless of spiritual beliefs. I hear human nature also spans differences in ethnic background, nationality, hair color and race.

    Well, that’s mighty white of them.

    “What? How did THAT get in there? I meant to put that in the trash. Silly me.”

    How do you “mistakingly” add christian to the requirements?

    I have an uneasy feeling they are surreptitiously trying to keep Muslims out of that position. I read one of the questions to find out if they were worthy to become the superintendent.

    Three Muslims died and went to Heaven (McBain Rural Agricultural School). When they approached the gate, St. Peter said “Sorry, only Christians are allowed in Heaven.

    “The Muslims said “But we are good Christians!”St. Peter replied “Okay, if you’re good Christians then tell me what is Easter?”The first Muslim went up to St. Peter and said “I know! I’m a good Christian! Easter was when the Jesus man dressed up in a white bunny suit and hopped around delivering eggs to children!”St. Peter shook his head, and said “Next!”

    The second Muslim guy then came up and said “I know! I’m a good Christian! Easter was when the Jesus man dressed up in a red and white suit and flied around delivering presents to good children!”St. Peter sighed, and said “Next!”

    So the last Muslim guy comes up to old St. Peter and says “Oh, I know! I’m a good Christian! Easter was when the Jesus man died on the cross for the people, and they buried him in a cave. After three days the Jesus man got up, went out of the cave, saw his shadow, and there was 6 more weeks of winter!”

    Damned shame they folded. They sound like the sort of people who could use a big financial loss following a lawsuit…

    I haven’t bothered to go to the conservative Christian websites but I’ll bet they are crying persecution.
