Dispatches from the Culture Wars: Praise the Lord and Pass the Switchblade:

Here's more of that good Christian charity. We're told constantly that school prayer will help keep kids from being immoral; apparently that doesn't hold true in Crawford County, Georgia. Two teachers there recently asked the school board to stop opening their meetings with prayer. Their reward? Vandalism.

The teachers asked the school board last month to stop giving invocations, which are routinely Christian and often mention Jesus Christ by name, at monthly board meetings and events such as new teacher orientation.

That same night, Laura Meldrum, a special education teacher, and Charles Gaston, who teaches English, found their car tires slashed in the school board's parking lot.

Yep, that's just what Jesus would do.
