***Davey's lawyers argued that the state violated his constitutional right to worship freely***
Preposterous! He can worship as freely as he desires - he just can't insist the government pick up the tab.
This ruling is as it should be. We don't need the government subsidizing Christ's kingdom.
What they fund they eventually seek to control.

The 'tab' is for schooling. If the government provides aid for one type of degree, it should provide aid for all types of degrees.
Personally, I'd prefer not to fund degrees for 'Women's Studies' or any similar clap trap, but I don't get a choice. So I fail to understand why a divinity degree would be singled out.

Too bad you support religious discrimination.
Scholarships are given to help people pay for college. To say that since you are a Christian you can't get the money is discrimination by the govt. and wrong.
