If it involves a permission slip and time out of an instruction day, then it interferes, and becomes officially sanctioned (especially if the kids are getting attendance credit). If the preacher is making comments about souls available to him, then it is proselytization, especially if those kids who are in attendance aren't regular members of his congregation.

And frankly, if he is driving a wedge and driving those children away from their normal congregations and drawing them to his church through peer and authority pressure, then what he is doing is reprehensible.

It is appearant that you have never been to a revival, or a Billy Graham Crusade...There isn't any "Proselytizing". It is ONE KINGDOM under God. I don't kow about "making souls available to him" thing, Revivals I have been to do not promote ones religion, but promotes a faith in Christ. Revivals have all types of denominations attending, and not one is singled out. Again, there is only one Kingdom of God. What wedge are you alledgeing is being driven between churches caused by this revival. You are assuming damage has occured. That is proposterous! Schools are STATE Sponsored, not FEDERALY! The First Admendment applies to Congress! The state can do these things.
