How so? No one has taken away their right to vote.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

The Bill of Rights is supposed to protect us from the voting mob.

It is impossible for education to be religiously neutral. When government owns and runs schools, government is establishing religion. This is a violation of the First Amendment.

The solution: Begin the process of privatizing all education on every level.

By the way, this case would never be in court if the college had been private. Private schools can establish any godless or god-centered religious worldview or specific religion or atheistic philosophy that they want.

Sure. But what does that have to do with this case?

This case had nothing to do with religion. the UC schools have certain neutral requirements for student admission. The people who lost this suit did not want to be bound by those requirements. They lost. Maybe they should try and play by the same rules as everyone else nex time.

This situation has nothing to do with your monomaniacal obsession with defunding public schools. Attendance at State universities is wholly voluntary and is therefore quite different from public elementary and high schools.
