Savoir - sounds French and sexy
backgorund - sounds like something my Lab dug up in the back
If you want people to take you seriously, you need to at least proof read your post before pushing the button.
You need to capitalize Christian and Jesus and maybe even Lord or the big guy is gonna be mad at you. Just looking out for you:)
"Savoir - sounds French and sexy"
It is (well, French, at least. Sexy is a matter of individual taste). Ironically enough, "savoir" means "knowledge" or "to know," not exactly something I associate with fundies.
"...make sure that all students accept jesus ..."
Jesus specifically allows for the fact that his word may not be accepted. He is not particularly upset by this. He just says to shake the dust of the place off your sandals... There is no element of compulsion that your statement implies.

OK, well, I can accept that he is your Lord and savior. However, I will not accept him as my Lord and savior.
Violation of free will it seems. But this also reminds me of the prayers made in public in the Jehovah's Witnesses, that often were more than simple prayer, more a type of sermon reminding people of all the rules they must follow and all the things they're not supposed to do, how they should hate Satan and the world, etc. Not just asking for benediction and the capacity to love and help, etc. In this particular case the post seems to suggest that prayer is for conversion and proselytism, similarly.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
