DETROIT (AP) — A Catholic school in Lansing has lost an appeal over a Michigan policy that required masks on young kids earlier in the pandemic.

Although the statewide mandate ended, some counties are stepping in and requiring masks in schools when the 2021-22 year starts.

Resurrection School and some parents sued in 2020, saying a state mask order violated the free exercise of religion, among other objections. A judge, however, refused to intervene and issue an injunction.

The 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals affirmed that decision Monday.

The Communist/Atheists want control over religion. Each little chink in the wall is a victory for them.

Masks today, curriculum censorship tomorrow, outlawing church schools is the goal.

I’d day to he’ll with them and not wear masks

The plaintiffs were screwed.

A squish Dubya judge at the front end in the Western District of Michigan, and an Odiousbama judge, a Clinton judge and a squish Bush senior judge at the back end in the Sixth Circuit.
