Federalism is a fine concept until someone talks about removing federal money. I think private schools can do what they like. But public schools because they accept public money are responsible to the public. I think if this goes forward you would also see a flood of lawsuits from every conceivable group wanting the “right” to propagandize children regardless of what local school boards wanted or didn’t want. And those local schools would go down under the weight of so many lawsuits. If this is such an important issue, parents would band together and do this under totally private money and not insist they be allowed to do it using public money (as in the case in the public schools). It’s just short-sighted to draw a line in the sand to make sure public school children have Bibles.

Scrubbing the government indoctrination camp environment free of Christianity is NOT religiously neutral. There is NO such thing as a religiously neutral vacuum. When Christianity is removed **something** is sucked into its place. Some other religious worldview is favor and established by the government school.

Solution: Complete separation of SCHOOL and state.
