[quote=Anonymous]I'm sure you'll find a bunch of experts on here, but as I understand it, you've got free speech issue here and separation of government and religion. That separation of govt/religion was originally to protect religion from government, although it's been interpreted the other way since that time. The teachers and the administrators, and the schoolbooks represent the government here; the kids aren't part of the government; they are private individuals. Also with respect to free speech, that is a situation that only applies with respect to the government not restricting free speech. If it were a private school, maybe they could limit the speech, but in a public school, the 1st Amendment would apply. So I think on both counts kids can proselytize. [/quote]
