I would have no problem with this "lesson" so so long as the school did the same with Christianity. They do not. Also there is the pending case of the girl who was told to stop (silently, privately) reading the Bible on school grounds, or face "discipline".

The courts have been violating the Constitution for decades. Every time an "anchor baby" is recognized, the 14th Amendement is violated. They key here are parents. They must take matters into their own hands in their local districts. Protest, withhold propery taxes, use your children as onsite protesters every single day, shut the school down until they stop employing transsexual teachers, stop banning Christianity, stop indoctrinating students with Islam.

It depends on what they did, if they told parents this was going to happen and let them opt out it was fine. If they let kids opt out it would be ok. But if it was required it was not ok.

Ok or not there is no doubt a school would teach kids about Christianity by having them read the 'our father'

People may be reading too much into this. I can't tell for sure but the article indicates the Court just refused to grant cert. (ie. accept the case for review.) If so, then the Court is not passing on the merits of the case. Who knows, maybe the Court is waiting for a case with better facts before addressing this issue, perhaps a case they know is already working it's way through the system. There's no way to tell, one way or the other, merely from a refusal to grant cert.
