A. The girls must have serious and credible allegations if a lawyer was willing to take their case. I believe that one of the following probably happened either the principal overstepped his bounds and basically harassed the two girls, there was no substantial evidence presented/ hearing help, or the punishment would not have been given or as harsh if the girls were circulating risque pictures of them with their boyfriends. Any of those situations seem plausible to me.

B. There's been enough incidents over the past two years concerning private schools that I tend to side with the students in these cases. And it's not just for "so-called" liberal causes; there was the pro-life girl who got expelled from her Catholic school for no reason in the fall.

C. I think that religious institutions should in general stay away from teaching children the three Rs and instead focus on teaching all their parishioners how to live moral lives.

A. Since when have serious and credible allegations ever been a prerequisite to filing a lawsuit or finding a lawyer willing to represent them? An old lady successfully sued McDonalds when she stupidly spilled coffee on her lap and complained that McD's made it too hot, for Pete sakes!!!

B. Assuming facts apply in this case from past or present experiences you had at other schools defies logic. Opinion, ok.

C. You are being sarcastic, right?
