Before she could finish, the teachers ordered her to strip any reference to Scripture or God, claiming that it violated a government policy.

I wonder if she had used 'Allah' and the Koran, would the same 'rule' have applied?..............

State law aside, that's actually the key point right there. Because if the school allows one, it would be forced allow the other. And that could lead to my child sitting in a classroom while some other kid was referencing a passage from the Koran. Not cool at all.

And I say that with a very heavy heart. Because I'm old enough to remember public prayer In my elementary school. It didn't hurt anyone, and might have even helped some kids. But unlike back then, today one can't be sure just who is reading what prayer.
