How in the world are public schools supposed to include God in the educational process? Are you aware of what the constitution says? There is no way to include religion except as part of current events or history classes. Do you think teachers are supposed to say prayers during the classes and include the students? Ridiculous. Leave praying and religion for church and home. Unless, or course, students want to gather in private in their free time during school hours.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

They can't! It is IMPOSSIBLE for a government school to include or exclude God in a neutral manner. It is impossible for **any** school (private or government) to include or exclude God in a neutral manner.

Solution: ( How many times must I post this?)

Begin the process of privatizing K-12 education. Vouchers, tax credits, and charters can help build the private infrastructure needed. Eventually move toward complete separation of school and state.

Decisions regarding worldview ( godless or God-centered) must be privately decided between the parents, and the private teachers, and private principals who work for private schools.
