Has anyone seen the text of that decision?

I am really curious whether they specified the religion (Muslim) there. That alone could be grounds for a suit.

Why would you not do the same for Christians, Jews, Buddhists..?

From the article it appears as though the policy is not specific to any particular religion, but in practice it appears that different areas, times, and clubs are religion-specific. I personally don't know what to make of it yet, but one thing that I can conclude is that it is sad that the catalyst for cracking the door on respecting religion in public schools was not respect for Christianity; rather, it appears as though the school gestapo opened its mind and policies for students of other faiths.

That is what I am saying.....this is the promotion of a minority religion and EXALTING IT OVER the majority religion. Once this gets to the SCOTUS and they strike the puppy down, it is one of the few times I can honestly say I will applaud them on the religion cases.
