So this “violates the Constitution”?? How?

I guess this “school” should read that document a little more often and a little closer and tell that ONE PERSON that complained to pound sand.

The crosses were put there by choice - if the gov’t had mandated that they put them there, *then* it might be unconstitutional. The fact that this Catholic school is being forced to remove them sounds more unconstitutional.

Lord, this is sad...

Then they need to also ban the letter “c” because it resembles the islamic crescent. They need to redesign the asterisk, which many people call a star, so that it more closely resembles the islamic star, and ban that too. The Star of David is comprised of two triangles, so they should ban triangles, and trigonometry.

Ephesians 6:16 tells Christians to "take up the shield of faith",

shouldn't that one person be offended by the shield also?

Wisconsin school district has ordered a joint public-private school football team to change its logo – in the middle of the season — after a lone parent said the inclusion of a bishop’s hat and cross was a violation of the U.S. Constitution.

Corruption! America will not survive if judges can just make stuff up about the Constitution. The US Constitution does not say anything that would force the removal of the Cross. What is wrong with this country?

“A parent last week raised the question asking if this was a violation of separation of church and state.”

There is no such principle and it certainly is not in the US Constitution.

How long before CHESS is banned ?

It could be saved by substituting an Imam for the Bishop.

It is NOT contrary to the Constitution. They should take it to the Supremes.

You're right. The constitution only prohibits the establishment of a state religion.

Anyone who actually believes that commie horsesh*t is either doing way too many recreational drugs or just a clueless, retarded moron when it comes to the U.S. Constitution.
