ALL MY CHRISTIAN FRIENDS, PLEASE READ. THIS
IS VERY IMPORTANT.

Let's all send the attached letters in hope and prayer that we
can stop this event from happening once again. Please share
this with everyone! We cannot afford to sit back and be
passive on this one.

This is really shocking when you read it you'll realize that
CBS will 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 fifteen years ago. Her
organization has now been granted a Federal Hearing on the
same subject by the Federal Communications Commission
(FCC) in Washington, D.C.

Their petition, No. 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 theirstand. 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 are praying for at least one million signed
letters. This would defeat their effort and show that there are
many who do not agree with such intolerance 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 is very
important that letters are mailed 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. We must unite
on this. Please do not take this lightly.

We ignored her once and lost prayer in schools and in offices
across the nation. Please stand up for your religious freedom
and let your voice be heard. Together we can make a
difference in our country while creating an opportunity for
the lost to know the Lord. Thanks for defending our
liberty........

(Address Removed to Protect the Stupid)

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. I am also very
much aware of the role that 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.,
as proposed in petition 2493 or 2495.

I urge you to uphold the freedoms that our country has
allowed us historically. The freedom of speech.

Sincerely,
