If you think they meant that a state paid coach can't pray at a football game, you've been drinking the Dim kool-aid. What it meant was, and is obvious from what was going on at the time, that the federal government won't force you to be part of a particular church to have freedom or be successful in life, nor will they punish you for being part of a particular church.
That's the kind of thing that had been going on at the time. That's what the Church of England had done (particularly with the king as the head of the church). That's what different states had already been doing. Basically, they wanted to ensure that the U.S. government was as open to different church memberships (or absence of church membership) as William Penn was when he set up Pennsylvania.
The 1st amendment doesn't guarantee you a right to not have to be around a Christian or someone expressing his Christian beliefs. Since this article is about a school employee, if anything the 1st amendment (combined with the 14th amendment extending this protections to the state level) protects Christians from having to answer biology tests where the only "right" answer is to believe that we all evolved from amoeba.

That’s wgphat I said. Not sure why you thought I think coaches can’t pray on public school a field?

Our constitution was not created in order to protect people’s delicate easily offended feelings, it was created to correct people’s actusl rights. A person has a right Ina free and open society to pray, anywhere anytime the like. And if someone’s delicate easily,offended sense of feelings get offended, then too bad. What the person can’t do though, is as I mentioned, force his students to,pray with him, and to join his particular religion under risk of punishment if they refuse
Ginsburg i b.eeive it was bastardized the amendment to mean that anyone caught praying on public property is in violation of the co situation because it “forced peop,e to participate because they will feel left out if they dont”. She basically argued that a teacher or public figure praying was a coercive event because peop.e that chose not to participate would feel ostracized.
She turned out constitution on its head by asking it meant ot protect people’s delicate and easily,offended feelings,rather than being strictly a rights upholding documentsadly the majority of other sc judges went along with her bastardizing the constitution, as they a,so did o. Obama are and gay marriage, likening gay proclivities and their desire to pretend to be married to being black or a minority
