My school's Christian club recently put a large piece of paper on the main hall titled Prayer Wall or some shit. It's in light of Thanksgiving. People can go there are write their prayers and what they‘re thankful for and why the like Jesus and other bullshit. There's been plenty of controversy, but nothing's been done. It's been there since about last Wednesday.

Should I do nothing?
Should I talk with the administration and ask them to take it down before taking any more drastic action?
Should I make a petition? I even thought of putting a poster next to the prayer wall where folks can sign it demanding that the prayer wall to be taken down.
Or should I just tear the piece of shit down?

Talk to the administration. If that doesn't work, put up the petition. If that doesn't work, vandalize the damn thing.

Break into school one night with a can of red paint and write "Religion is the opium of the masses" or something! :lol:

That is illegal, contact the American Civil Liberties Union. A state encorsed club cannot take part in religious bias.

And also print propaganda about what Thanksgiving is actually about. White people giving thanks to the Natives who saved their lives and shared food with them. They somehow forgot that after the genocide.

Right on! I was thinking thae same thing.
I wouldn't have to even post except state my agreement.

I would also include the reality of Native american life durring "Thanksgiving Day,"
Which some people refer to as "Thanks for Nothing Day."
Probably because "Fuck the rulingclass enforcers that took advantage of, commited the largest scale genocide and slavery campign ever, of; and that still oppress the Native American people to this day Day," takes too long to say.

It was only up for a few days. Not long enough for me to do anything.

In essence, a "prayer" is asking for some form of divine interference, or in the lesser extent recognition. As such, there is nothing that would have stopped you from doing likewise yourself.

So why not ask their "god" for his believers to gain some lucidity, to see the world the way it really is and save us all from the clutches of price-society? You can do far more to affront in this scenario by disrespecting the custom in the manner they wish it respected, than to disrespect it by destroying it.

In short, ridicule it.
