Ed Morrisey adds :

It sounds to me like the ACA wants a “don’t ask, don’t tell” rule for religion. That runs square into the First Amendment, especially for a state-run school. The ACA’s idea of who comes first doesn’t get to trump the restriction on freedom of religious exercise. If clients get off-put by Keeton’s approach to counseling, they can look for another counselor. Now, the ACA can decide not to certify her; as a private organization, they have that prerogative. If they do that explicitly based on her religious belief, however, they may have a problem with that in court, especially as it will block Keeton’s ability to make a living.

The state-run school has no such leeway. They cannot impose a religious test for graduation, no matter how they dress it up.

Secular humanism is a religion and the liberal advocates are requiring that the masses join.

WTF!

We have decided to become a nation against all that is right.

Forgive me Lord!
Forgive us Father...
