Florida GOP Considers Bill Which Would Allow Student Government To Vote For School Prayer Over Objection Of Religious Minorities: "School sponsored prayer has been unconstitutional for years. This is because a publicly funded school cannot put one religious group over another. It would alienate those who practice different religions or none at all. But a new bill in the Florida Senate would circumvent the Constitution by allowing student government to vote for the kind of school prayer they want over the objections of religious minorities.
According to the ACLU of Florida, Senate Bill 98 “would let school districts overrule the objections of religious minorities and organize school-sponsored prayer under the banner of student government. Under the bill, school officials would be able to skirt the Constitutional protections of religious liberty by letting students actually vote on what kind of prayers the school will allow and conduct...."

These people keep getting nuttier and nuttier. If I had children, I wouldn't want their religious education done by the schools anyway.
One is not permitted to circumvent the Constitution. This effort to establish a "tyranny of the majority" is just another effort by these evil people to establish a state approved religion. Fools!!!
They really are, and I feel the same way. Kids go to school to get an education. If I wanted religion thrown into it I'd send them to a private Catholic school.
They are fools. I have no interest in a state religion. And people seem to forget that's why the Founding Fathers left Europe.
