[QUOTE=EverydayJunglist]Wow,this politics board is dun-did fierce.This post should be answereed simply.The fact is there is no room for religion in public schools.Church and state=separate.I remember when the pope died,we had to have a moment of silence for him.WHy?We didn't have one for Dimebag when he died?If they want to teach us history,and science,and math...that is fine.Beacuse most of it is factual and backs itself up.But don't push your fuckin beliefs on me godammit!!!!! I wasn't born with enough middle fingers......[
actually there is NO specific constitutional provision of "seperation of church and state."

And with the "cauldron and witch thing" mentioned by Torog. Well,did they go flat out and a say something about the skit being Pagan related.Or was the skit named "awesome pagan"...no. But the girl's play was called "awesome god". There is a place for "awesome god" and that is church,not school. Props to Bhallg2k,for your valid arguments,and persistence in debating.All of y'all got valid arguments,but i think bhall put you in your place.Peace

"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion..."
Any way you slice it, that's separation of church and state.

moreover,the first amendment says congress shall make no law.that is a resrtiction on federal,not state,power.

The 1st Amendment says nothing like that.
The 10th Amendment gives unenumerated powers to the states and the people. Is that what you mean?
