[QUOTE="Cute Tink, post: 59535384, member: 5363"] A student has a right to pray, but not to make the whole school listen to it - a right to speech, not to be heard. But this is not about a student's right to speech. It is about a school attempting to endorse one religion. It has nothing to do with a student's right to speech. Yes. The intent to prop Christianity up as the school's religion was thwarted. Not established. Sorry. You are going to have to really back that statement up, because morality can exist and wouldn't be much different from what the US has/had without religion. Because "Christmas" is a Christian holiday. Besides, students are in school to learn, not party. And? Is that the only place students can have a discussion? In what class is a religious discussion appropriate to the subject matter? It is not. Lack of discussion of religion is not the same as suppression of religion. You want the school to endorse and/or favor your religion by posting a prayer specific to your religion. Not much of a stretch. And what class is that appropriate for? [/QUOTE]
