<p>“Students in public schools are subjected to all kinds of propaganda, and their primary recourse is to report whatever is said or done that they believe to be outside of acceptable boundaries.”</p>
<p>Logosprincipal, it may surprise you to learn that by and large, when students and their parents complain of prostelytizing in the public school classroom and other forms of religious discrimination, the response usually ISN’T, “Oh, you’re right, I’m so sorry, I’ll stop immediately.” Even if they don’t complain, but simply choose not to participate, the kids are subject to ridicule; they’re singled out in front of their peers as deviant troublemakers; often, their families have to change schools or move away. </p>
<p>The teacher I mentioned who was forcing kids to stand up and pray her denomination’s prayers and scolding them for not bringing their Bibles to school? </p>
<p>There was tremendous hostility in some sections of the community when she was made to stop her illegal behavior. The adult who complained about it nearly had her own career ruined over it. Only then did some of the parents come forward to say that they had been uncomfortable about it, but had been too intimidated to do anything.</p>
<p>What the worst of the theocrats want is to be able to subject children in the public schools to HH style name-calling over their religious beliefs and to remove any legal recourse the parents have to make it stop.</p>
