Do you believe the Constitution forbids religion being taught in public schools? Did you go back thread and read my post #153? That’s the source of my reasoning WRT this issue.

Before 1963, was there ever a school district that became a 100% Islamic district? Today, would graduates of such a school system be able to pass entrance tests for college?

I reluctantly think that that public schools should stay out of the religion arena entirely.

There are plenty of private schools that are not so restricted.

I don’t have a problem with any religious course being offered as an elective in public schools. Even Islam.

But it must be an elective and nobody forced into taking a religious course at all.

That’s not the school’s job, which they would do badly in any case.

It is established law of the land arrived at by the accepted process. My opinion and your opinion doesn't matter.
