    most schools choose to ban all religious groups rather than allow all, only reason it exists

    this is the only way some Christians see why religion is not allowed in most public schools, it opens their eyes

    Too bad. That was probably the agenda of the person or people behind Satan Club. We should not have fallen for it.

    You gotta love the irony of folks that trash the bible but without the bible they'd have never known about Satan. Morons ONE and ALL :)

    Most schools are worried about being sued by vindictive Christian haters. Even if the school is not doing anything wrong frivolous suits like that drain money.

    That doesn't answer the question.

    There are many "one true gods" that people believe in. You need to be more specific.

    End of the discussion then. Whatever their reasoning doesn't matter. They have a right go it. And I have a right to cheer them on.

    Cry some more.

    You are so focused on this....did you read anything else in my post? I had about 3 paragraphs focused on the topic..

    I'm not debating the existence of God with you....I'm not obligated to answer your question.

    Sounds like the one crying is you. I'm just curious why you progressives love to hate Christianity but you always give Islam a pass

    if they are trying to convert children to be lgbtq, then they are also in the wrong, you're exactly right, just as wrong as a Christian doing it

    there are fanatical lgbtq's too, you're getting it now

    If it is voluntary, I see no problem as I see with Bible or Christian clubs. They may be "upset" but it is perfectly legal for the school do so as long as it is voluntary like any other religious organizatino on school grounds, so says the Supreme Court.

    Christians and Muslims believe in the same God, most are good people, just like Christians, but they also have their fanatics

    That is because we are in the check-the-box, teach the test type of mode of education now in order to get those graduation numbers. We manipulate the numbers for education to pound our chests and say "we are doing good" while at the same time failing to teach even basic critical thinking skills. It is why we see certain young people be so gullible these days on Social media, among other things. Brad Upton was right in his comedy routine about 20-somethings.

    So you have no answer. That would have been easier to say.

    And Islam has what to do with this? You cry about someone hating your fairytale religion and then turn around and hate someone else's religion. Classic.

    You had a GOP candidate in Michigan who said that the worst amendment was the 19th amendment, giving the women right to vote. You have Evangelical Christians who have literally said and promoted stoning gays including a church in New York State, Westboro Baptist Church, and others. But there are Christians, namely certain Methodist, Lutheran, Presbyterian, and Espicalian denominations that allow gay and lesbians to serve as well. But even Evangelicals will say they are not "true" Christians.

    The LGBTQ community is not trying to force their lifestyle or beliefs onto anyone. They just want to be recognized much like African Americans wanted to be recognized during the Civil Rights Era or during the abolition of slavery. Why do you think it was a big deal to have the 53rd and 54th Massachusetts Regiments organized?

    I'm not religious I just like pointing out partisan hypocrisy. I'm just curious since you hate a particular religion why you don't hate other religions.

    But hey at least you hate the religion where it's not very dangerous to your health to speak out against it.
