Religion and schools: a query

[Max B. Sawicky]

One could say the same thing to the other side, though.  Why do
conservatives want to have students pray at school?  Shouldn't those
who
find religion truly meaningful to their ethical life be opposed to the
state interference with religion, which takes away from their vaunted
"free
will"? >>>

That argument was good enough for Roger Williams,
but evidently not for others since.

 Isn't it because religion is merely a political football for
conservatives that they want to have the state lend it the
significance it
otherwise lacks?

Like everything else, there's a element of political calculation and
an
element of faith, I would say.

These things would be much easier to deal with if they were all one
thing, or mostly so.  But they aren't, IMO.
