Only if one uses the post modern godless interpretation of
the First Amendment.— Oh I know I’m wishful—but there is nothing in the original intent —Nothing in the language used to suggest what you claim. Our public schools held
to the Norhtwest Ordinance —and the foundations of American education without judicial interference until after the Civil War.Then the nutcases decided to reform
American education to exclude religion and morality
