No more Bible study! Beaumont, Texas’ men and women in blue have been told they can no longer hold a voluntary Bible study during lunch at the police station. After meeting like this for years, with no complaints, the City of Beaumont has demanded that the officers stop.
A pre-suit letter, which is required by the Texas Religious Freedom Restoration Act, is being sent to the city stating that the officers’ religious rights have been infringed upon.
Sargent Burt Moore, who helped found the Faith and Fellowship Bible study, pointed out that the City Council prays before its meetings and the police station will start an event with prayer as well.
He also said that there is a chaplain program which still meets at the station. The study he says has a diverse group of faiths and ethnicities coming together for the study and believes the City is “unfairly targeting us.”

The people in charge is going stupid.Go to one of the moslim countries and tell them they cannot pray.See what happens.
Give us the names of these morons officials pls
How sad, who would with this country in such a mess stop bible study?
Since when can you stop people from voluntary holding bible study. This is outrageous The liberals have taken over the city councils and do not care about our rights. These officers have to keep on holding bible study. It would be totally against the law for them to be fired for this.
I thought Texas was one of the top Patriotic American states?
Hippocrates anyway. Murder innocent people in Jesus name. How sick
Pray and study anyhow.
No way. You cannot stop people from studying the bible!
