OK. Is Florida the only sane place left in the country?
Teachers at a public school in Florida have the right to make their parking space their own. Well, this one teacher had the words “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.”
Here’s a pic:
This, being the 21st century in a country going full on supernova, ignited a controversy because some nut job can’t stand the sight of the cross.
The woman who freaked out over the cross, obviously knew she needed something a little more dramatic than the fact that she hates Christians so she said it’s because of the holocaust.
I’m a little unclear how the cross and the holocaust are connected but she seems quite dramatic about the whole thing.
The Blaze: Bible verse painted on a teacher’s parking space at a Florida public high school has angered a fellow staff member — so much so that instructional assistant Marina Gentilesco told WFLA-TV she feels as though the verse is “attacking” her.
What are the details?
Gentilesco — who works at Wiregrass Ranch High School in Wesley Chapel about about a half hour north of Tampa — told the station she grew up hearing stories about her parents in the Holocaust.
That’s why passing by the parking space — adorned with the words from Philippians 4:13 in the New Testament: “I can do all things through Christ which strengthens me” — every school day angers her so, WFLA said.
“I feel like it’s attacking me as a Jew,” Gentilesco told the station, adding that “it brings me to the verge of tears, because it brings me back to the 6 million that perished. Six million perished because of our faith — because we’re Jews.”
She also told WFLA “they survived — we didn’t.”
Gentilesco added to the station that she wouldn’t mind the verse in a place like a church — but that letting it be on school grounds is going too far.
“You put it on a state-funded property, I’m not OK with it,” she told WFLA.
Well, the good news is that the school district is actually siding with the Christian woman, not the woman who acts like a vampire screeching at the sight of the cross.
It’s getting to seem like the world is a vampire that rejects and reels at the sight of the cross. Hmmm…that’s probably not a good thing.
Say, how’s that new evangelization coming?
