Is that against separation of church and state stuff or am I missing something? Eagerly wait to hear from someone
Public school isn’t the state. Public school is public. God’s children. This is a win.
No, the Establishment Clause prohibits the gov't from establishing a state religion. Remember, the Plymouth colonists left England because the King would not allow them to freely practice their faith. The original premise has been corrupted through the years. "In God we trust" was meant for Christians but really, this phrase can apply to any faith that has a God.
There is also a Free Exercise Clause that protects citizens right to practice their faith as long as it does not "run afoul" of public morals or against laws.
The left will be howling about that right now. They are not teaching Bible in class.
That's only for religions we don't like. ;)
