Guest guest Posted April 28, 2000 Report Share Posted April 28, 2000 FYI, just thought you might want to help, by printing out the letter and signing and sending. Skippy Petition 2495 CBS may be forced to discontinue " Touched By An Angel " for using the word " God " in every program. Madeline Murray O'Hare, an atheist, successfully eliminated the use of Bible reading and prayer from schools 15 years ago. Her organization has now been granted a Federal Hearing on the same subject by the FCC in Washington D.C. Their petition, #2493, would ultimately pave the way to stop the reading of the Gospel of our Lord and Savior, 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 on radio or TV will stop. This group is also campaigning to remove all Christmas programs, Christmas songs and Christmas carols from public schools. YOU CAN HELP!!! We are praying for at least 1,000,000 signed letters. This would defeat their effort and show that there are many Christians alive, well and concerned in our country. 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 OUTSIDE OF THE ENVELOPE. As Christians, we must unite on this issue. Please do not take this lightly. We ignored her once and lost prayer in schools and offices across the nation. PLEASE stand up for your religious freedom and let your voice be heard. Together we CAN make a difference! Date: ______________________ Federal Communications Commission Washington, D.C. 20054 RE: Petition 2493, 2495 Dear Sirs: I am an American and am very thankful for my American heritage. Our forefathers founded this country under the remise of a strong belief and faith in God and his principles. I am in agreement. 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 TV, programs designed to nurture faith in God, or to remove Christmas programs, Christmas songs and Christmas carols from public airwaves, schools, office buildings, etc., as proposed in Petitions 2493 or 2495. Sincerely, Name:_________________________________________________ Address: ______________________________________________ City & State: ___________________________________________ Zip Code: _____________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
