text: Alceste.... Geez, we have police at school meetings and kids who are apparently scared... what more do you need?  I dunno, how about:
  
  1.  Public schools are places of education, not worship - education trumps religion
  2.  Religious groups can form their own secular schools if they want, so no need for it at public schools;
  3.  Safety issues
  4.  Discrimination issues
  5.  There are likely other ways/places muslim students can practice their faith
  
  I'm sure an islamic school in saudi would be happy to enroll and bunch of catholic kids and permit them to practice their religion freely.  Ya right.
  
  Alceste - you have lots of posts but no cogent arguments why religion should be in schools other than cite that it's a charter right and needs to be accommodated under human rights.  Please, give me some good arguments (aside from it's their "right") why religion should be in public schools.  Please... I beg you b/c I'm tried of justifying my position while you don't justify yours.
