Oh, no doubt Baldwin was a major league red and the ACLU is a pernicious cancer in our society. I just think the event described in this story stepped over the line of the Establishment Clause. I know the kids weren't harmed in any real sense and some of them may even be thinking about their souls for the very first time!

Havig religion in schools does not step over the first amendment. Forbidding it does. Read the whole thing, you know the part about "or prohibiting the free exercise thereof", that part, the one that guarantees us freedom of religion. NO where in the clause does it say we must keep religion out of public places, there is no serperation of church and state, merely the prohibition of forming a state religion.

Seeing as how this play is not an establishment of religion by congress, it is NOT in any way a violation of the first amendment.
