Okay, in offering nothing to the conversation now except 4 superficial whiffs, you've had the only sidestep I am prepared to grant.
As I understand it there is only one Supreme Court ruling on the matter of religious speech in schools. Stone v. Graham, 449 U.S. 39 (1980). The court ruled displays of the 10 Commandments in school buildings to be unconstitutional based on Abington Sch. Dist. v. Schempp, 374 U.S. 203 (1963). The Court offered minimal analysis and simply labeled the Ten Commandments "an undeniably sacred text," comparing the posting of the Ten Commandments to the daily Bible reading, which was held unconstitutional in that case. [ACLJ]
The only acceptable scenario therefore, in which one may discuss tenets of the Christian faith would be in the context of a broad secular setting. Such as a course on religion in general, thusly giving (I guess), equal time to the other religions such as Buddhism or Islam. B. LYNCH v. DONNELLY And ALLEGHENY COUNTY v. ACLU
Further, the 10 Commandments nor any Scriptural reference may be displayed on municipal grounds or on public school grounds as a stand alone display. Books v. City of Elkhart, 532 U.S. 1058 (2001). Remember Judge Roy Moore ® AL, and his inexcusable jurisdictional misdeed? He a defied a FEDERAL COURT ORDER as follows;
ARTICLE EXCERPT---
"Alabama Chief Justice Roy Moore defies a federal court order to remove a monument to the Ten Commandments from the state judicial building. The U.S. Supreme Court had rejected Moore's request to block a district court's order to remove the granite monument. The district court ruled the display violated constitutional provisions for the separation of church and state."

In short thanks in no small part to the ACLU, there are more cases on the books which clearly regulate how federally affiliated concerns, (that would be any and all public venues including schools), can or cannot speak on matters of The Lord and His Word than Carter has little liver pills.
At any rate, I'm not about to let you and your not-so-secret ghost writer, (who BTW likes to lay back and PM and prompt his lackeys), derail this thread. As I indicated in the thread starter, the people of America are paying the price for abdicating their God given responsibilities to stand for Him, and our Godly heritage. Had we done so we would have honored the very Creator from Whom we are granted the specific rights enumerated in the Constitution. In having not so done, we have brought shame upon ourselves of which the growing lawlessness stands testament. I don't expect you to agree with that, but then that my friend is your own problem.
