Choose your weapon.
a Muslim student should be covered to call their classmates to prayer.
Would you be equally accepting of that? Umm asked and answered....
Is she going to say the words "Let us pray"?
Originally she was, but that is not what she ended up saying.
I would have objected to any prayer in this light. Until I read that the court of appeals had sided with the young woman, I would have thought the law was on my side.
As this was overturned from a previous ruling against this individual, I would assume there is at least some room for debate on this issue (at least legally).
However, as it stands, the courts have spoken.
Where is the "establishment of religion"?
I have posted twice the establishment clause form the US Constitution and as of yet you've been unable to state where said establishment is to take place.
BTW, this is also a Freedom of Speech issue as well. The Judge with his ruling has in effect suppressed the girl's right to free speech.
And he was overturned.
DO you see where this is going? One silly agnostic individual has decided to be a pain in the ass by using the courts to allow him to be a pain in the ass, and the whole community is being turned upside down.
The rule of law is in place to prevent the rule of mob. In other words, simply because something is popular doesn't make it legal or right.
The agnostic's son's rights are not being violated. He is free to ignore the prayer. He may use ear plugs. He can read. He can sing to himself. He can endure a 30 second prayer.
Their argument had nothing to do with being inconvenienced.
This is much ado about nothing. This agnostic person will move forward to his next idiotic crusade where he will become offended because he views religion as offensive and he will find another judge sympathetic to his pathetic need to be recognized.
I see however ,he's got people like you on his side.
Merry Christmas!!!! Does that offend you? Good....Happy Easter.
You mistake me for an agnostic or an athiest.
I am neither.
