[quote=Anonymous]While the State (of which public schools are a part) cannot espouse one particular religion or force people to practice a religion, they can and do discuss religion and teach what various religions believe and various traditions and celebrations of religions. It is not the case that public schools are supposed to pretend religion doesn't exist (StayPuff Marshmallow Man help us if we graduated millions of kids with that level of ignorance), nor do individual students check their right to free speech at the door (which obviously does not include hate speech and a host of other litigated item and rights school kids don't have). Hopefully your public school will teach your kids these basic tenets of civics.[/quote]
