I like these guys
The*Freedom From Religion Foundation*[FFRF], a highly litigious atheist group, looks to sue Clemson University over the role head football coach Dabo Swinney’s Christian faith plays in how he runs the program.
The only problem is the group can’t find a current or former player willing to step up as a plaintiff.
“We filed a complaint [against Clemson] in 2014. At this point we don’t think the university has taken appropriate corrective action,” FFRF staff attorney Patrick Elliott tells Breitbart News.
He adds, “We still have concerns about how that program is being conducted. The university needs to appropriately monitor religious activity in the program.”
When asked specifically what those concerns are, Elliott rattled off a list.
“They need to stop doing church day. They need to cease having coaches in team prayer. And don’t know the status of their chaplaincy.”
Tell that to the students of....
Newsmax's Top 100 Evangelical Christian Colleges
Guys like this Blake freak, would be cryng like little babies in a foxhole with the bad guys closing in, ya see they have nothing after they are dead, those who believe in a God simply move on.......they do believe they will.
Granny wants to think grandpa is up in Heaven, that sooths her mind. Who wants....ah , he's just worm food now....? I pity this Blake freak.
Little girl had to bury her little dog Spot, with tears in her eyes.......
Little girl...so, will Spot be in doggy Heaven?
Blake....don't be stupid, there is no Heaven.
Little girl...boohoo boohoo boohoo

Since you don't believe in the Bible, you should explain your version of God and heaven and how you think your pedo ass will get there.
But you won't because you're a pussy
And evangelical Christian schools are private.
You're pretty dumb.
You really stupid enought to think all those sailors in foreign bars are pedos, come on little man. you really this ing dense? It's whatcha do over there , ok ya dumb ?
There is no doubt this didn't all come about by chance or BIG BANG!!!!!!!!!!!, there was obviously a MasterDesigner, I just don't believe the Biblical account is what actually happened. There we see something similiar to what we find in the Koran, and what guys like Homer wrote. Simply....bull .
The thing is his stupid, a lot of people do buy into that bull and and do believe it happened just like that, ok cool.....I don't care, at least they know better than some dumb like you, they have something while you ain't got .
Try again.
Explain your version of Heaven and why you think you'll get there.
Where did I say I think I'll get there or if there is a Heaven....well? What I'm saying is it's better to have hopes in something other than just this old world, than to be like you with no hopes of anything at all.
I have no idea what happens after ya die, nobody does, so I just ....it would help if ya cooled this hide and seek bull , what's with that? But, I know you're there"....if that don't work, it!
As you totally ignore all those religious schools out there and all those students.
Why do you think no matter where you're at the people there will worship their Gods? Why is this Blake?
Walk in here Blake and tell these people how religion is bad thing, and there is no God, you'd look stupid Blake as they all..."poor little guy"
Now show me something you dumb ass atheists do, well?

Dumb is ignoring the fact we have so many of them......why?
Now add....
The United States had 7,498 Catholic schools in 2006-07, including 6,288 elementary schools and 1,210 secondary schools. In total there were 2,320,651 students, including 1,682,412 students in the elementary/middle schools and 638,239 in high schools.[7] Enrollment in the nation's Catholic schools has steadily dropped to less than half of its peak at five million students 40 years ago, The New York Times reported in early 2009. At its peak in 1965, the number of U.S. parochial schools was more than 12,000, and roughly half of all Catholic children in America attended Catholic elementary schools, according to the National Catholic Educational Association. The same share in 2009 is about 15 percent. Among Latinos, the fastest-growing church group — soon to comprise a majority of Catholics in the United States — it is three percent. The article also reported on "dozens of local efforts" to turn the tide, including by the Archdiocese of Chicago and Washington, and dioceses in Memphis and Wichita, Kansas, as well as in the New York metro area.[8]
Where are those atheist schools?
So when the doggy dies, what exactly do you yourself tell the kids?
Wow you really have no idea what the difference is between public and private schools is.
Lol low IQ.
From one non-religious person to another shut the up already. Did a priest touch you when you were little? I don't understand how you let religion consume so much of your time here.
It doesn't sound like a single player from Clemson gives a about the religious aspect Swinney brings to the program.
“I have recruited and coached players of many different faiths. Players of any faith or no faith at all are welcome in our program. All we require in the recruitment of any player is that he must be a great player at his position, meet the academic requirements, and have good character.”
During his teleconference, Swinney cited former wide receiver Aaron Kelly, a Jehovah’s Witness, as an example of his program’s policy in action.
“We couldn’t have more opposite faiths,” said Swinney of Kelly. “But yet I coached him for five years, and I love Aaron Kelly and Aaron Kelly loves me and his family loves me. I never had a problem, ever, in coaching him.
“He was never a guy that went to church with us. He didn’t pray with the team if the team ever prayed together, and it was never a problem. He became the all-time leading receiver at Clemson and the ACC. It’s not about who the best Christian is, it’s about who the best player is. It always has been and it always will be.”
“We believe the practices of the football staff regarding religion are compliant with the Cons ution and appropriately accommodate differing religious views,” said the statement. “Participation in religious activities is purely voluntary, and there are no repercussions for students who decline to do so. We are not aware of any complaints from current or former student-athletes about feeling pressured or forced to participate in religious activities.
“Clemson takes very seriously its obligation to provide a comprehensive program for the development and welfare of our student-athleteswhich encompasses academic, athletic and personal support, including support for their spiritual needs.
“We will evaluate the complaints raised in the letter and will respond directly to the organization, but we believe FFRF is mistaken in its assessment. The Supreme Court has expressly upheld the right of public bodies to employ chaplains and has noted that the use of prayer is not in conflict with the principles of disestablishment and religious freedom.”
Your little gots tucked tail and ran when confronted.
“Without a player that’s willing to challenge [the football program in court], I don’t think there would be any legal action that could be taken,” FFRF’s Elliott tells Breitbart News.
“We’re not seeking someone,” Elliott claims. “If they contacted us it [representing them] would be something we could do,” he adds.
“We would challenge their action under 1st amendment and file a lawsuit,” Elliott says.
Elliott asserted that the Clemson football program violates the establishment clause of the First Amendment, but responded by laughing when Breitbart News asked how specifically the Clemson football program violates the establishment clause of the First Amendment.
“What news station are you with?” he asks.
“That makes a lot of sense,” he responds when told Breitbart News, before immediately hanging up.
When Breitbart News called the Freedom From Religion Foundation, we clearly identified ourselves as representing Breitbart News to the receptionist who forwarded our call to Mr. Elliott.
The establishment clause of the First Amendment reads as follows:
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof…The question we were about to ask before the Freedom from Religion Foundation’s Elliott hung up on us was to name the law Congress had passed that was uniquely relevant to how Dabo Swinney’s Christian faith influences his operation of the football program at Clemson.
We also wanted to know if the FFRF intended to file a lawsuit against the United States Senate and the United States House of Representatives, both of which have an official chaplain.
Avante....yep, Spot is in Doggy Heaven, and smiling down on you.
This a kid, not the time to worry about anything other than putting a smile on her face.
You're so far gone you really think it matters, hahaha!!!!!!!! What's the bottom line stupid? Damn you're dumb.
Chubb only averaged......hahahahahaha!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Dude, did ya really think that would be the only game he ever played, what a dummy.
Blake, what is your ing problem? When will your dumb ass figure this out? People don't really care if God is real or not, it just makes them feel better about things thinking he is, you really haven't figured that out?
Damn you're dumb.
Yeah, it matters for the point of the article. If you want to go off on your usual old man lists, then there's no point talking to you other than to just lol at your sophist ass.
So you make something up to avoid tears. What a coward.
Lol long winded rant.
Why even open this thread and post in it? Just leave it be and go eat a while you work on your next re ed 2nd amendment gun rant thread.
Lolsmh
Of course they can't find support.
The players were/are grown ass men and they weren't/aren't being pressured into participating in these religious activities.
I mean there's a point where you just have to laugh at this kind of petty : where does the buck stop? It just gets pettier & pettier. It'll only be a matter of time when they'll argue that it's uncons utional, religious indoctrination to stick a cross on the side of a govt. funded public road where a loved one has died.
No it doesn't matter at all, my point was a ton of kids go to religious schools, private/public a non factor.
And I wish ya wouldn't talk to me but since ya follow me around...hey.
That's right, ya make things up to avoid tears.
Spot comes up missing, a few days later you find him on the side of the road dead. Your daughter thinks he just got lost. Do you tell her Spot is dead or a nice family probably found Spot and he's safe.........well?
Damn your dumb.
Didn't even read him did ya stupid?
Did you tell little Olongapo girl that your was an air spout and that you were a parade float and you needed her to blow you up? Did you explain to her that your was actually icing and that she won the prize? I mean, you couldn't tell her you were molesting her, right? Tears and all.
Little man it would go like this.
her...buy me drink?
Avante...sure.
small talk, going nowhere and saying nothing.
her...buy me drink?
Avante...sure.
more yakyakyak.
her...another drink?
Avante....sure.
more nothing chatter and then.
her...we go ysucky?
Avante...sure.
Dude, it was always them asking you, ok stupid? The deal was she had a quota to make for the bar, once she got that now it's time to make some more $$$$, you supplied that, ok little fella? OBVIOUSLY....being just a kid you knew nothing about that.
I get this felling you do understand all this, but just do the re ed bit to mess with Avante, right?
Do you people have any idea how ridiculous you would have looked being on board a navy ship pulling into port and then staying on board or going to a bar and telling these working girls..."oh no not me".....hahahaha!!!!!! All of you would have done what we all did and you know it, so why act like a re over this?
Sailors and bar girls, is news to you people, wow~~~~~~~~~~
I get it....gotta mess with Avante...but this only makes you people look stupid. What's really stupid is actually thinking these bars hired 10-12 year old kids to hustle drinks, the drinking age was 18.
To think you people are....STILL....talking about this amazes me. That happened in 70-72.
