A PRAYER TO ALMIGHTY GOD~
and
A PETITION TO MAYOR OF LODI~ CALIFORNIA~ LARRY D. HANSEN~
and COUNCILMEMBERS MOUNCE~ HITCHCOCK~ JOHNSON~ KATZAKIAN:
Dear Mayor and Councilmembers:
We the undersigned~ respectfully petition you to defend religious freedom by allowing visiting pastors
of all diverse faiths and denominations~ to pray aloud publicly according to the dictates of their own conscience~
at or before city council meetings~ even if they dare to pray aloud publicly "in Jesus name" or invoke their own specific deity.
Please do not cave-in to atheist intimidation by the enemies of religious liberty~ including
Americans United and the Freedom From Religion Foundation~ who are threatening to sue to silence all prayers.
Please conform your decision to First Amendment precedent which allows Jesus prayers among other rotating diverse prayers~
as already decided in the 7th Circuit (Hinrichs v. Bosma) and 11th Circuit (Pelphrey v. Cobb County)
and by the Supreme Court of the United States in two decisions: Marsh v. Chambers and Lee v. Weisman.
Jesus is not an illegal word~ the Bible is not a banned book~ and evangelistic speech is not a crime.
Please simply adopt a policy similar to Tulsa City Council~ and declare the prayers are private speech~ not government speech~
or allow the prayers to be said aloud during optionally attended time~ just before the first government business is gaveled to order.
Please allow pro-bono Christian lawyers~ from the Alliance Defense Fund or others~ to defend your pro-Jesus prayer policy in court.
We pray to God you will stand with us by taking a courageous stand for liberty~ in Jesus’ name. Amen."
Add your "Amen" by signing below~ and WE WILL POST YOUR COMMENTS to the Mayor and Councilmembers
of Lodi~ California who face threat of lawsuit by AU and FFRF to censor "Jesus" from public prayers.
