Government agencies and the Democrat party keep insisting that we must remove religion from the public square. They will (mistakenly) claim that the Constitution calls for a separation of church and state, though as most of you know, the founders were against an official state religion but had no quarrel with religion being practiced and intertwined in government activities and institutions. But religious antagonists, atheists, and leftists have been busily erasing the influence and visibility of traditional religion from almost every public venue imaginable, which they claim is an effort to avoid offending the tender sensibilities of non-believers. It is, in fact, an effort to replace one higher power with another, God for government, and it is working. Many traditional religious mores and standards such as marriage and honesty are slipping away, and surveys indeed show that younger people growing up simply don’t include religion as part of their lives.
However, something odd is happening, and it is hard to explain. While leftists and government bureaucrats decry the “limitations” that religion supposedly imposes on people, and rail against the “control” imposed by religious leaders over adherents, there is a movement afoot to invite and protect a new religious movement in the public square and to give it special protections and support, even if it violates some of our basic freedoms such as free speech. This, even while that particular religion seeks to impose controls and requirements over American citizens that would not even be remotely considered if it were suggested by one of our more traditional religious institutions.

Trump will clean out all of Obama’s appointees and replace them with people who think straight.
All religions represented!!!
yes to religious freedom- no to the radical Islam of conquest of the west.
Public schools are no place for the DEATH CULT of ISLAM.
If there idiots are supposed to cover their heads why do they put on makeup?
OH, I must have missed something. Thought our children couldn’t have religious freedom in school because it might offend someone else. Guess Muslim’s don’t have to abide by American rules and laws, but Americans have to abide by their religion. Good luck with that one.
Reverse discrimination?? They should as hell don’t promote Christian religious freedom and have attempted to crush white folks calling it white privilege. I’m all for Muslims having religious freedom but no more than Christians and/or Jews or any other religion…. Muslims don’t deserve special treatment anymore than anyone else. Their teachings are theirs but need to be kept out of public schools!! If they want Islamic beliefs taught they need to build their own Islamic school system exactly the same way the Catholics, Greeks, and Jewish people have done. Why should their views be forced on the rest of us?
This is so wrong in so many ways, the schools not to long ago had to remove Halloween and Christmas from their parties because it was too religious based by the protests and suing from atheists, but now we are going to let the Islamic religion move into our schools that we the people pay the taxes, NO NO this is so wrong. They can start their own schools just as other religious groups have in this country…..if Christians can’t have their views in schools then Islamic can’t either….What are you people trying to start a war among our children in school with religion??????
Desperate pandering to foreign occupiers sad
b******t no religon in schools this is the parents job not schools
