DOJ Announces New Effort to 'Promote Religious Freedom' in the Nation's Schools
Yeah bullshit. Its more like investigating people who don't accept Islam and its beliefs....has nothing to do with religion. Its just a different kind of propaganda. NO RELIGION belongs in public schools. PERIOD. Put your kids in religious schools if you want them learning about religion.
Yeah - so much for the separation of church and state ruling huh.
Supreme Court rules - no prayer in schools --->

Robert S. Wood has argued that the United States is a model for the world in terms of how a separation of church and state—no state-run or state-established church—is good for both the church and the state, allowing a variety of religions to flourish.

It would be the U.S. Department of Justice versus the Supreme Court. Justice would loose.
We are supposed to have religious freedoms. Freedom of Speech ( yes, to a degree and extent ). And the Government is supposed to protect the American citizen, their freedoms and their rights. The American citizen was not born to be oppressed. The American citizen was not born in communism, or some totalitarian Government.....under a iron fisted dictator.
Hang a cross, or a picture of Jesus up in a school and see what happens.

Isn't this redundant, and a case of hypocrisy? The ACLU says---->
Your Right to Religious Freedom.
QUOTE =
Since private and parochial schools aren't run by the government, the First Amendment doesn't apply to them.
QUOTE = CAN MY TEACHER START THE DAY OR A MEETING WITH PRAYER?
No. Prayers, scriptural readings and loudspeaker devotionals violate the First Amendment because they promote religion. This is true even if the prayer is "non-denominational" (not of any particular religion.) Moments of silence might be unconstitutional -- it depends on whether or not the real reason they're being held is to encourage prayer.
QUOTE = Think about your friends who have different faiths or no religious beliefs at all.
They'd still feel excluded from their own graduation exercises. Or worse, they'd feel like the school thought your religion was better than theirs. Put the shoe on the other foot for a second and think about how that would make you feel!
QUOTE = If a school official has told you that you can't pray at all during the school day, your right to exercise your religion is being violated. Contact your local ACLU for help.
Key words = " Prohibiting free exercise thereof.... "
QUOTE = "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof..." -- First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution
