| Description | Please share this with everyone! We don't need
to sit back and be passive on this one.
This is really scary and once you read it
you'll realize that CBS would even be forced to
discontinue "Touched By An Angel"
because they use the word "God" in
every program. Madeline Murray O'Hare, an
atheist, successfully eliminated the use of
Bible reading and prayer from schools fifteen
years ago. Her organization has now been
granted a Federal Hearing on the same subject
by the Federal Communications Commission
(FCC) in Washington, DC. Their petition,
No. 2493, would ultimately pave the way to stop
the reading of the Gospel of our Lord and Savior
Jesus Christ, on the airwaves of America.
They took this petition with 287,000 signatures
to back their stand. If this attempt is
successful, all Sunday Worship services being
broadcast either by radio or television will
stop. This group is also campaigning to remove
all Christmas Programs, Christmas songs and
Christmas carols from public schools. You can help!
We need one million signed letters.
This would defeat their effort and show that
there are many Christians alive, well and
concerned in our country. Please print this
letter then cut off and sign the form below.
PLEASE DO NOT SIGN JOINTLY, such as
"Mr. & Mrs." Each person should sign one
letter separately, and mail it in separate
envelopes. Be sure to put "Petition
2495" ON THE ENVELOPE when you mail
the letter. This has to go out regular mail. It's
important that you do it right away. Please
e-mail this letter to all your friends and
relatives and to anyone else you feel led to.
Or photo copy it and mail it. Christians
must unite on this. Please do not take this
lightly. You don't have to be a "Bible
Thumper" to realize the significance of
the disappearance of another good influence
in our lives, and of particular concern, that
of the next generation's lives. We did once
and lost prayer in schools and in offices
across the nation. We cannot let this attempt
succeed. Below is a sample letter that you can
copy and send, or draft your own personal
message to voice your concern.

Re: Petition 2493
Dear Sirs;
I am an American and am very thankful for my American Heritage.
Our forefathers founded this country under the premise of a strong belief
and faith in God and His principles. I am also very much aware of the
role that our Christian faith has played in the freedom that we Americans
now enjoy. Therefore, I protest any effort to remove from radio or
television, programs designed to nurture faith in God, or to remove
Christmas programs, Christmas songs and Christmas carols from public
airwaves, schools, office buildings, etc.
Sincerely,
Name:
