This issue is an example of state actors abridging constitutionally enumerated rights imo, 1st Amendment-protected religious expression and free speech in this example, state actors violating Section 1 of the 14th Amendment by doing so imo. 

In fact, patriots who value their constitutionally enumerated protections should note that Acts 22:25-29 shows that Paul used his Roman citizenship to save himself from being flogged.

H O W E V E R …

Unless Pres. Trump can work with gridlocked Congress to make punitive laws to discourage state actors from abridging constitutionally enumerated protections, patriots may need to wait until after they can elect a patriot Congress that will actually do its duty to protect enumerated rights.

"And now, South Park Elementary presents the happy, non-offensive, non-denominational Christmas Play, with music and lyrics by New York minimalist composer, Philip Glass!"

We must take back our schools if we want our Country back.

If Christian parents don’t ban middle schools, they’re guilty of child neglect.

Years ago, my ex-wife ran a campaign in northern California to include traditional Christmas carols in the school pageants, plays, Christmas programs, etc.

She was religious and upset that the school administrations and department of education were switching to "winter soltace" neutral songs, containing no references to Christ or religious symbols.

Well, she won and for a few years, the schools and kids could celebrate Christmas in a traditional way.

I don't know how much longer it lasted but I have a idea the liberals in California overwhelmed the program and went back to eliminating any references to Christmas.

It is sad what liberals are doing to this country and the world.

Maybe we could add Blood-thirsty murdering inbred , woman abusing, filicide maniac ... to please muslimes & angst-ridden liberal gadflies. In the interest of diversity and for the children.

I was recently at a public high school sporting event and the student rock band did a song that contained the lyrics “side with the devil” (or possibly “ride with the devil”) repeated over and over. A teacher participated with the band off and on, maybe for that song but maybe only for other songs.

My kids do not and will not attend public school.

I agree with many here that this abuses the rights and feelings of Christian children, whose faith and culture is being treated as too offensive to include in a multi-cultural world. But from another perspective, the Anti-Jesus Song Police are DEPRIVING immigrant or non-Christian children of exposure to mainstream American culture. They don’t have to become Christians. Why did they come to the US if our culture offends them? This is the opposite of inclusiveness and diversity.

Jesus is common to almost all religions. Many view him as a prophet; while we know he is the son of God and our savior.
Therefore we should celebrate our cominality.

Does that mean they are going to kick out all the Mexicans named Jesus?

"Please stand up for the Child Jesus."

What hypocrites... If the parents won't "stand up for their own children" (which, since they have criminally abused them by incarcerating them in a government indoctrination institution, they do not, obviously) what chance is that they will "stand up for Jesus"?

Only liberals could exclude something and then call it more inclusive.

To give some of you heart, the public middle school where I used to teach and now sub at today had a choir practice in front of the students. Both songs featured Jesus. So all is not lost—quite yet.

Fine. Excuse all Christian children from school for two weeks to celebrate Christmas, which is their First Amendment right as a “free exercise of religion.” The non-Christians, including the teaching staff, will go to classes as usual. Of course, the daily stipend of state attendance money that is given to the schools would take a severe hit, but that should matter, should it?

They need to think about the founders of our nation and what they would recommend.

When you sign up for the government’s “free” daycare, you take what they give you.
