“Since when is renting a building the same as congress establishing a religion?”
Of course it is nothing of the kind. I cannot understand why if in the 18th and 19th century America, where school were often held in the local church during the week without complaint, does it become an issue today? A similar thing happened here on Long Island a few years ago. Evidently, a public school had been using a local church to hold some classes that they were unable to fit in their school building. One person out of nearly one thousand parents complained and the local judge considered it unconstitutional. It made no sense. But I think it is because that one anti Christian person making the complaint, has views which match the presiding judge’s. What a world.

Further proof that liberals and idiot judges can’t even read the U.S. Constitution, let alone apply it. Further, unless I missed something while I was asleep last night, schools were still pretty much not a federal institution. Does their state Constitution contain language prohibiting the free exorcise of religion?
