As far as I know the separation of church and state are not in the Constitution, but here we are dealing with state government. My concern is that it would open the way to requiring elective classes on other religious texts on the grounds of non-discrimination.
You are viewing a single comment's thread from:
it is in the constitution, the state may not establish one religion over another, or religion over non religion, period. this also violates WV's state constitution.
David, I really appreciate you taking the time to reply to my comment.
Because it is an intricate issue, it would be great if you could interview a professor of law on your show (any BC volunteers?) Many of us are busy professionals (I suspect your audience is quite well educated), but our graduate degrees are not a protection against ignorance, misunderstanding or misinterpretation when we venture outside our specialties (as evidenced by the posts that are all over the place, including mine), and we don’t have much time to do in-depth research. We need sound information on which to base our opinions (and our activism).
Thanks!
