Senior Center Orders Seniors To Stop Praying Before Meals

Rob Port • May 9, 2010

Because the meals are funded by federal tax dollars, and there’s that “separation of church and state” stuff that, uh, doesn’t actually appear in the Constitution anywhere.

First they make us dependent on government. Then they use that dependency to control us.

PORT WENTWORTH, Ga. — Preston Blackwelder proudly showed off a painting of his grandmother that had hung next to the front door of his Port Wentworth home.

She was the woman who led him to God, Blackwelder said Friday.

And with that firm religious footing, Blackwelder said it would be preposterous to stop praying before meals at Port Wentworth’s Ed Young Senior Citizens Center near Savannah because of a federal guideline.

“She would say pray anyway,” Blackwelder said of his grandmother. “She’d say don’t listen.”

But Senior Citizens Inc. officials said Friday the meals they are contracted by the city to provide to Ed Young visitors are mostly covered with federal money, which ushers in the burden of separating church and state. …

Tim Rutherford, Senior Citizens Inc. vice president, said some of his staff recently visited the center and noticed people praying shortly before lunch was served. Rutherford said his company provides meals like baked chicken, steak tips and rice and salads at a cost of about $6 a plate. Seniors taking the meals pay 55 cents and federal money foots the rest of the bill, Rutherford said.

“We can’t scoff at their rules,” he said of federal authorities. “It’s a part of the operational guidelines.”

Now we can argue about seniors eating federally-funded food. We can argue about the state of entitlements and government dependence in general in this country. But we’re always told by the liberals that we need to fund entitlements to help the poor and the elderly, etc., etc.

So we’re helping them by…prohibiting them from praying? How is that helping?

Though no liberal would ever come right out and admit it, this is part of the end goal of entitlements and government dependency. Again, once we’re dependent on the government the government can control us. Right down to the prayer we may or may not say before a meal.

If it were me and I lived near that Senior Center, I would organize a group of Christian Visitors, and if you have some that big guys and know karate etc even better, to go down there for every meal and pray with those people every day, while engaging an attorney to fight this... or find another way to help these people get their food!!

We are really at the point that all people in the US fall into three several categories:

Kool Aid Drinkers and Obama Worshipers

Patriots who believe in the Constitution and God or at least the right of the rest of believe in God

Cowards and/or Idiots

What is the old saying? There are 3-kinds of people in the world:

Those that make things happen (good and bad)

Those that watch things happen

and Those that say What happened?

We are truly down to the point of those that get need to be ready to stand-up for what we know is right and act according to the need at hand in each situation against those who have but one goal to destroy America... and move to a one world order. And those of us who are Christians know where that is going.

And the Cowards and idiots need to take a side or as usual in their live be stuck with what is left.

Do yourselves a favor and vow to pray and talk to God consistently and with his strength speak-up, stand-up, report, sit-in, vote and prepare yourself to be able to stand up in and for yourself and God in your worst nightmares.

The NWO group planned to have the North American Union in full swing years ago, but we were too tough, too elusive. Stopping them, postponing them, perhaps extending man's time on Earth, or at least our place as a people during the End of Times could very well be in our hands and in our relationship as individuals and as a Country with GOD... Right now, as a nation overall, we are teetering on a cliff in the wrong direction.

God... Gold... Guns... General Store Supplies to be Prepared... and Guts; the Guts to stand up for God, for the Constitution that true Patriots know was God inspired, for America, for our way of life, for our families and against evil where we need to be... right now... today. Tomorrow is probably going to be too late to change things. Don't wait for the outcome of the 2010 and 2012 elections to stand-up. Stand-up today so that the 2010 and 2012 will be guided by God's hand so that we have a place to start fight from.
