The funny thing is I have had these debates with my brother about prayer in school, and he had no answer for satanists on the loose doing rituals, incantations, etc. He thought it was ridiculous that anyone would give satanists equal standing with Christians when it came to self expression. I think that is the entire point I am trying to make. Many Christians try to portray themselves as martyrs, the persecuted minority... which is ridiculous, they are not persecuted at all. Just because some of us do not appreciate evangelicals (since I am related to a few I have firsthand experience dealing with their illogical thought process that by saying they cannot indoctrinate other people's children they are somehow denied their "freedom"). I also know for a fact that in their minds people who are not saved are leading their children on the path to eternal damnation. They do not respect parental authority. They do not respect parents that are not saved. They think nothing of undermining parents of children who do not believe the same way as they do, and they feel as though it is their duty to win souls no matter what.

I don't have an issue with school property being used for nonscholastic club meetings as long as there is no special consideration of one group over another. As long as the chess club, french club, Dungens and Dragons club, WICCA, students for satan, etc.... get the same treatment as the Fellowship of Christian Atheletes or other prayer groups and they are not allowed to interfer with class or get any special treatment, then fine.

Personally, I don't think public school facilities are an appropriate venue for religious activities of any kind. A chess club, a French club, a cooking club, a history club, all fine. But a Bible study club, a Jews for Jesus club, a Christian Fellowship club... no, just no. Period.
