lsneo, just wanted to mention about the word of God not allowed in public places usually has to do with Government places. I am Christian myself, but the government can not endorse any religion. Plus as a Christian I know the bible states spread the word but do not force it upon non-believers. So when you only teach Christianity aren't you forcing students to believe that the bible is fact? Are you giving the student the oppertunity to choose to be a Christian or not? Can you teach every religion? No, and that is why there is no endorsement of religion by the US government. That is where it's become a little more cloudy then can we have a bible verse on a wall or not.


This comes up a lot around here because there are a couple public parks in towns around here with The Ten Commandments displayed. The ACLU gets involved, there are court orders, etc. What everyone has failed to do, up to this point, is prove how having The Ten Commandments displayed in public is government endorsement of a religion.
