Click on "REPORT" and you will read
that the Gideons International said they can hand out Bibles at schools
in the Soviet Union, but not in the schools here in the U.S.
Interesting. If this teacher had said something that involved the Muslim
religion it would probably just been in the name of diversity and
nothing would have happened.
Subject: TAKE ACTION: Teacher Fired
for Giving Student Bible
ALERT: A longtime substitute teacher
in Phillipsburg, NJ, has been fired after he shared a Bible verse with a
student -- and upon request gave the child a Bible.
THIS IS OUTRAGEOUS! Check out this
report from Fox News:
The Phillipsburg School Board voted Monday night to terminate the
employment of Walter Tutka. He was accused of breaking two policies –
distributing religious literature on school grounds and another policy
that directs teachers to be neutral when discussing religious
material...
Tutka's trouble started in October
when he was standing by a door waiting on middle school students to
enter the building. One student trailed behind the rest. "Just remember,
son," Tutka told the tardy student, "The first shall be last but the
last shall be first." A few days later the student asked about the
origins of the quote. Tutka told him it was in the Bible. "Over the next
few weeks, the young student asked about a half dozen times where the
quote was from in the Bible," [Joe] Imhof [a close friend of Tutka] told
Fox News. "Walt kept forgetting to look it up."
On Oct. 12th, Tutka was eating lunch
in the cafeteria when the student approached and brought up the Bible
verse. So Tutka took out his Bible and showed the student the verse. At
some point the student mentioned that he did not have a Bible. "Walt
basically said, 'would you like mine?" Imhof said. "The student said yes
and so Walt gave him his personal New Testament."
As Tutka's pastor, Chris Hussey, said, "Christianity is under attack in
America. It seems our government officials are afraid of Muslims and yet
they capitulate to them and any other religious group. But when it comes
to Christians -- they are completely intolerant of Christians."
TAKE ACTION: These INTOLERANT public
school board members must hear from average Americans, across the
country. We need to STAND UP for Walter Tutka and other teachers just
like him, who are willing to STAND UP for what they believe!

Firing a public school teacher for answering a student's repeated
question and then giving that student a Bible when they were not in
class... it's a TRAVESTY, and Americans need to SPEAK UP about it!
