The 1st amendment is designed to protect religion, not be hostile to it.
Actually, the SC is suggesting there is no room for the Founder's intent.Says anyone with an understanding of the word fair.
You go to a group of students,
"Hey who here wants to form a student group and meet in school rooms? Ok line up, lets see, ok, Art Club? You get room 10, Music Club? You get room 12, LGBTQXZ Advocacy Group? you get room 16,
Young Christians? Whoa. you guys are CHRISTIANS. No room for you."
Meaning you reject the position of the Founders. Who did not want belief in the cloud fairy getting anywhere close to the purview of the state.There is no legal or moral or logical grounds for the stated positions or reasons of the Left on this issue.

In two cases this term, the conservative majority on the Supreme Court made it abundantly clear that there’s little room for the separation of church and state in its regressive constitutional framework. For nearly 75 years, the court has recognized that both of the First Amendment’s religion clauses are vital to protecting religious freedom: The Establishment Clause protects against governmental endorsement and imposition of religion, and the Free Exercise Clause ensures the right to practice your faith without harming others. No more. The court has increasingly treated the Establishment Clause as a historical footnote, threatening both the independence of religion and the religious neutrality of the state.
In Carson v. Makin, the court held for the first time that a state must fund religious activity as part of an educational aid program. Maine’s tuition assistance program pays for students in rural areas with no public high school to attend another public or private school. Concerned with maintaining a strong separation between religion and government, Maine has long prohibited the use of public funds to finance religious instruction and indoctrination. Many other states have adopted similar provisions, in some instances dating back two centuries. And with good reason: Avoiding compulsory taxpayer support for religion lies at the heart of the Constitution’s religious liberty protections. In fact, James Madison, the principal author of the First Amendment, explicitly warned against taxpayer funding of religion, including religious education, because it would be the first step in allowing the government to force citizens to conform to the preferred faith of those in power.

Ask God.What is Gods preferenced religion?
See?
Told ya.
Nice assertion. Nice appeal to authority. In the real world, Trump supporters are good people. YOu are a bad person for smearing such good people for no reason.
Ask God ...
What changes nothing in my opinion that everyone who votes for Donald Trump is a shame for the USA and a traitor of the western world. Btw: What is your migration background?
He's probably an immigrant to Germany, himself.From my exposure to Germans, they are mostly nice people, with good work ethnics. I wish them them well.
You personally though, seem to have a lot of hate.
My "migration" background? I was born in this country. I have never migrated anywhere. I did move from the suburbs into the city.
Why do you ask? Is it because you find me personally interesting and want to know more about me?

They have a lot of Turks there.
Who said there needs to be criminal charges?You haven't presented any criminal charges? What are they?
I believe in God. I strongly doubt that God believes in religion.No need to do so. God is a Catholic.

Thzts whyt I say. Germans who don't kill you are nice people.
What a Prussian nonsense expression. What for heavens sake could be "work ethics" - except the Benedictinian rule "Ora et labora [et lege]" = "You are also able to pray while you work - but do not forget to study."
And that's why US-Americans murdered millions of Germans and took care that all Germans will die out - so a super-idiot like Donald Trump is able to generate also votes with a wide spread hate on Germany in the USA?
Always not interesting for me what people think who not think.
Aha. So you forgot where your familiies came from? Do you know something about who lived in the lasst 5000 years in the area where you live now and what this has to do with your own person?
Suburbs ... are this villages?
I guess most Germans do not really underdstand how very strange are US-Americans behind their smiling masks.
