Well, I’ll be flamed for this, but having the ceremony in the “religious part” (not sure what that is called in a Church) would result in Orthodox Jews, for example, not being able to attend the ceremony, in that the Torah forbids entry by Jewish people into the sanctuary of what Jews consider a false religion.

Now, would I have sued?

No, I would have explained to my very disappointed daughters (all of whom that reached such age being at the top of their class and gave a short speech) that they were out of luck and we’d go get their Diploma from the principal.

A Jewish friend of mine, now deceased, attended my SIL’s funeral in a church. He even wore his yarmulke..............

You deserve to be flamed. This was not attending a religious ceremony. What is your view on US economic and military aid to Israel, a state specifically set up for the benefit of a particular religion? If you support such aid, you are a hypocrite of the worst sort.

Christians should not put their children in public schools. Government schools are child abuse.

Isn't this strict interpretation part of the overall problem with the worlds religions? not flaming, just asking.
