in response to reader comment: You're right...

I simply pointed out that the standard of separation of church and state is applicable to all schools supported by public funds. I hardly think that is over the edge--like a rant about freedom of assembly, freedom of speech, classical music and everything else in the kitchen sink might be. I am not sure what "The Lemon Test" is, but I am sure you've passed it with flying colors many times.
