Chris Long, hosted the Bob Burney Radio Show on WRFD Radio 880 AM this afternoon. Long interviewed John Freshwater’s Pastor Don Matolyak, Trinity Assembly of God Church in Mount Vernon. During the interview Pastor Matolyk announced that at approximately 4:30 PM the Mount Vernon school board voted to recommend the termination of the teaching contract of John Freshwater with the school district. Mr. Freshwater has 10 days in which to appeal the termination once he receives the official notice by mail.
Again the only thing that I see Mr. Freshwater was guilty of was exercising his God-given First Amendment right to freely exercise his faith.
I see Mr. Freshwater’s case as a microcosm of the pitiful situation that exists in America today. As God, Jesus Christ and Christian influence are purged from our culture the culture declines, decays and eventually dies. That a man cannot express his religious beliefs anywhere and in any situation is outrageous and un-American.
I sincerely hope that Mr. Freshwater will bring suit against violation of HIS civil rights and once and for all settle the question of the erroneous separation of church and state.
