Inside the Christian Legal Crusade to Revive School Prayer
Buoyed by the right-wing Supreme Court, Christian groups are laying the groundwork for public schools to veer back toward the 1960s.
Comment: this is a long but well-researched and written article discussing religion in education, and school prayer in the Southern states (focus: Louisiana).
Included is discussion of the erosion of separation of religion (i.e. Christian religion) and state via U.S. Supreme Court, Louisiana (and other state) courts, and U.S. federal courts.
From the article:
"Over time - advocates of the separation of church and state fear - long-standing protections for young atheists, people who belong to no religion, and religious minorities will be eroded - until, perhaps, these protections disappear altogether."
