Making Noyse Against Students' Required Reading of the Bible

To:  West Boca Raton High School

We, the silenced voices of society, are prepared to step up and make noyse and be heard. For far too long, the mainstream culture has prevented us from expressing ourselves as individuals, and instead spoke for us as a whole. We are entitled to free speech, and not only are we primed to showcase the beauty of free speech, but we plan to break down the censorship barriers with the sound of our thoughts, opinions and expressions.

Our first step in our march towards the public eye is to uphold the values and beliefs of the founding fathers of America, as a way of saying “thank you” for noticing hundreds of years ago that we are entitled to be free-thinking, free-speaking individuals.

The separation of Church and State is one of the most debated and heated issue unspoken of by the masses. While we are not on a crusade against religion, the concept of religion or the tolerance of religion, we are on a mission to abolish the forceful means of which religion is spread through our culture. The larger picture is to make the suppressive censors aware that ideas and beliefs shall not be forced upon us, without them expecting a struggle in return.

In Boca Raton, Florida, at West Boca Raton High School, entering 11th graders to next years’ class will be required to read the book of Genesis. The school claims they are not dredging past any boundaries, because state law allows studies of the Bible as long as it’s studied as literature. This is no more than a misinterpretation of the laws, as requiring that students read the bible directly defies the separation of Church and State.

We, the silenced voices, are now speaking up, and are demanding to be heard by the West Boca Raton High School, as well as any other school districts considering such a requirement, that this is wrong. We will not stand for this, and we are prepared to make as much noyse as possible until this problem is rectified.

Sincerely,

The Undersigned
