That's a far cry from what we've got, where children are forbidden from prayer, Bible reading, etc., on school grounds.I was unaware that children are forbidden from doing any of these things. I do believe that the teachers are forbidden to lead them, or supervise them in being led, in such activities, but that's different from what you've said.

I was thinking of prayer in a public setting, e.g., before a football game, etc. This is not the case in all districts. But it is the case in some districts.
The other reference had to do with some teachers in some districts refusing students to bring Bibles on school property. I tried to find the file concerning a teacher in Texas (and, again, I cannot find the file, so don't quote me) who confiscated two Bibles and threw them in the trash.
I will find that article and share it later.
Currently, there is a case in court in our own district where a teacher refused to allow a student in high school to bring a Bible on school grounds. This all in contradistinction to some of these same school districts requiring students to read the Koran (Byron, CA; University of North Carolina).
The public is finding out what Christians have known for decades: if you're white, middle class Christians, especially if you are male, you are an absolute target. They will show no mercy. The forces at work are determined to absolutely silence our voices.
This country has gone absolutely nuts.
