Parents HUMILIATE School Officials After Bible Verses Cut From ‘Charlie Brown’

A Kentucky elementary school decided to give A Charlie Brown Christmas special a politically correct makeover this year, which really didn’t sit well with parents. While the movie was playing at the school, the parents revolted and took the opportunity to humiliate school officials.

On Thursday, Johnson County Schools in Paintsville played the Christmas movie to an auditorium packed full of students, parents, and administrators, only there was one thing missing — Linus reciting Bible verses to explain the meaning of Christmas to Charlie Brown. While administrators figured the move was “inclusive” for all the students, parents at the school really weren’t pleased, and something incredible happened during the showing.

According to TheBlaze, the school edited out the portion of the film where Linus Van Pelt recites Luke 2:8-14, which reads as follows:

⁸ And there were shepherds living out in the fields nearby, keeping watch over their flocks at night. ⁹ An angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified. ¹⁰ But the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid. I bring you good news that will cause great joy for all the people. ¹¹ Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is the Messiah, the Lord. ¹² This will be a sign to you: You will find a baby wrapped in cloths and lying in a manger.”

¹³ Suddenly a great company of the heavenly host appeared with the angel, praising God and saying,

¹⁴ “Glory to God in the highest heaven,
and on earth peace to those on whom his favor rests.”

The scene is arguably the most important in the cartoon feature, since it explains the true meaning of Christmas, which is what its creator, Charles Schultz, intended, and the Kentucky parents weren’t about to let the school get away with taking it out. Right on cue, they started reciting the Bible verses in unison for everyone in the auditorium to hear.

“The parents in the bleachers basically quoted the verse from the book of Luke, and it was just an amazing moment — it really was,” Joey Collins, parent of one Kentucky student, said. “Everybody was pretty much in tears and clapping. It was just a great time.”

How cool is that? It’s funny the school’s administration actually helped to spread the word of God and the true meaning of Christmas while being anti-Christian bigots, isn’t it?

You know, if more parents were to do things like this, the problem of hyper-sensitivity in schools would eventually fix itself. As Christians, we have rights too, and just because the bigoted left says our beliefs shouldn’t be celebrated, doesn’t make it so.

Well done to these families for both showing school officials where to stick it and helping to spread the true reason for the season. Let’s just hope this kind of thing catches on and starts happening more often. Merry Christmas!
