Does the Constitution Really Say Freedom of Religion?

its not but it has absolutely nothing to do with the Constitution!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I guess you missed Con Law when you were in Law School??

Sure it does!! It's not mentioned, so according to YOU it must be permissible in public schools.
 
I'm glad to know that drug use is allowed in public schools too.

By our noxious policy of prohibition, drug use is encouraged in schools. If we build the system to cause it, it will come. It's here. Prisons too.
 
Sure it does!! It's not mentioned, so according to YOU it must be permissible in public schools.

actually we have 50 states too and powers not delegated to the federal govt are reserved for them. Do you understand?

don't be silly, by not prohibiting it, it is in effect allowed. The Constitution is not a list of 1 billion things. Their concern was with establishing a religion or preventing free exercise, not whether there was religion in schools.


That's about $20,000 that you owe me now.
 
care to tell us how do you figure that?????????????

Nope. You're just gonna have to live with it on your way to the bank.

Small bills please.

"Vigilance is eternal" means that we always have to watch... In every case. I have no trouble watching government, I don't trust them either, never have. I DO however know the difference between what is and what is not constitutional, and religion IS NOT allowed in public schools because they are state and federally funded.

Religion is allowed in public schools. It just can't be formally sponsored by the organization. They can't prevent or punish a person for praying at appropriate times. I would even say they would get sued if they tried to prevent a Muslim from participating in noon prayer even if it's during a class. Schools can even provide space for religious groups as long as they do not formally endorse them nor discriminate between groups.

seems absurd. Constitution is about Federal Govt not local schools which should be free to do what they want. Especially under vouchers when they can pick the school they want to attend.
