Roswell principal nails Christian students for delivering donuts

Christianity -- apparently more vile and obscene than pretty much anything else public schools have to offer -- is once again on the front burner, this time in Roswell, New Mexico.

A school principal has disciplined a group of unabashedly Christian students for daring to drive over into Texas on their own time to buy Krispy Kreme donuts to give to their teachers as a way of saying thanks.

I know, it's horrible. Read on if you can.

The students had the audacity to include little slips of paper with Bible verses on them.

According to Liberty Counsel, a non-profit litigation, education, and public policy group with an interest in protecting religious liberties, some of students drove six hours round-trip to get the donuts, a treat that isn't available in Roswell. The students belong to a group called Relentless in Roswell.

"Since the closest Krispy Kreme shop was in Texas, some of the group drove almost six hours round trip, stayed overnight, got up at 3:00 a.m., filled their car's back seat with fresh doughnuts and got back to school on time to deliver the doughnuts," Liberty Counsel explained.

Shocking.

Their principal's reaction? According to Liberty Counsel, he was quoted as saying, "I don't like Christians. All they do is smile at you and stab you in the back."

Remember, dear readers, this man gets his salary from New Mexico taxpayers. They are trusting him to educate their children.

That's the most shocking of all.

Matt Staver and Liberty Counsel do excellent work to protect the rights of American citizens. I think the principal's quote is a great example of the unfair discrimination against (and negative attitude towards) Christians recently.
