I am a Christian. But no student (or staff member) should be allowed to exhibit any religious symbol in a public school. So a crucifix is out, as is a Star of David, as is a hijab.

Public schools, military installations, government offices, etc. ... all must be religiously and politically neutral. Wear a crucifix, a Star of David, etc. if you wish. But keep it under your shirt when you are working at a public institution.

There is no neutral position on God.

If you oust any mention of religion, it's not a neutral position. It's the position supporting the no God stance.

This country was founded on Christian principles and when it was and the Constitution and First Amendment were written, public schools across the nation opened each day with Bible reading and prayer. And the Founding Father's said NOTHING about this violating any part of what they instituted in this government.

If they didn't see any conflict, then there isn't any.

You are taking the easy way out, the cowards way out.

There's a world of difference between allowing a hijab and granting special privileges for it.

I am 100% opposed to making exceptions for it, but if they want to wear it, that's their choice. Just don't play the martyr for it and demand special treatment.

Ah, heck. I did want to discuss this further with you, as you made several good points. Then you went for a personal insult. So I think I’ll pass on talking with you further.
