Joe Kennedy, who used to coach for the Bremerton School District in Washington state took a knee and prayed quietly at the 50-yard line after games. This is the inflammatory context for a High school football coach appeal to the US Supreme Court, what was heard on Monday. Why should traditional religion be discriminated against? Teachers and trainers are allowed to proselytize their waking belief system, Displaying gay pride symbols and Black Lives Matter slogans in the classroom? Are children less at risk of being coerced or indoctrinated by these ideas presented by authority figures they want to please? Now the void is being filled by the ideology of social justice, the religion of the left under a different name. For the past 60 years, public schools have been exempted from religion in the name of the US Constitution’s Institutional Clause, which forbids favoring one religion over another.
