And do you contend that teaching creationism in public school is an example of free exercise of religion, or is it an example of the government respecting the establishment of religion?
The people of the State of Louisiana decided it is a limit on the free exercise part of it, if it is excluded as you would suggest.
What part of the Constitution provides for public schools? Aren't they run by LOCAL people, for the benefit of the LOCAL people. Do they not have a say in what they wish to teach to their children? Would you not say that to do otherwise, would be a LIMIT on Religion AND a LIMIT on FREE SPEECH. Do you consider your precious TOE so fragile that it cannot withstand RELIGIOUS scrutiny?
Would you like to take my guns, too?
