Two Pace High administrators are in legal hot water after allegedly violating a court order prohibiting the promotion of religion in Santa Rosa County schools.

Here’s the full report.

This news, in combination with a NWF Daily News Spouter who says the ACLU recently got involved in a case to allow Muslim prisoners to have the right to pray in prison, has me wondering — maybe the organization should change its name to “Anti-Christian Lawyers Association.”

It’s been a long time since I’ve heard about the ACLU taking up the civil liberties of someone who wants to protect their right to express their Christian faith.

I personally don’t think any kind of prayer has any place in taxpayer funded places. Reason: If you allow a Christian prayer, then you have no choice but to allow, say, a Satanic prayer as well. Better to not have either in public, and let people worship in their own way in private.

But why is the ACLU so insistent on taking the side of those who don’t wish to see Christian prayer in school? Aren’t the administrators in this case also having their civil liberties restricted? Shouldn’t the ACLU have a lawyer on both sides?
