Edit to Yesterday’s Article

by Allison

Ms. Mize has contacted me and said that she did NOT turn in the paper with the religious statements included, but turned in a edited version of the paper and a statement hoping to prevent the same thing from happening in the future. For that, I applaud her. I think it freedom to talk about God is very important.

I’m sorry for the mistake in my reporting–the various articles, including the one linked yesterday and others, come together to form a very misleading representation of what really happened. It just goes to show that you can’t believe everything you read–not even from me.

My opinions do, however, stay the same. I believe religion is very important, but that specific beliefs are not always appropriate everywhere, especially in a professional career. Stay strong in what you believe and stand up for your rights, as Ms. Mize did, but realize that your specific ideas regarding God might make others uncomfortable and angry, which I’m feel God would not want. If you want to keep God in every moment of your life, it is important to fight your battles wisely.
