    " Controversy erupted in September when parents observed Prosper High School principal Greg Wright speak to students about how his Christian faith inspires him and what prayer means in his daily life,*reported KXAS in Dallas. A parent complainant, Janie Oyakawa, said the principal's participation would alienate non-Christian students.

    She filed a complaint to the FFRF—an organization that had made Texas headlines before for challenging religious expressions in public ins utions. In 2015, it filed complaints against an East Texas school districts*for daily Bible readings*with morning announcements, and later against a North Texas police department for printing "In God We Trust" on fleet vehicles.

    He showed up at a pre-school prayer rally and talked about his faith. This is different from leading a prayer over a loudspeaker during school. Silly fight to pick.

    When my non-Christian self doesn't want to feel alienated by Christians I simply avoid prayer gatherings. The anti-Christians are ass bat crazy as the Christians.

    It's not a huge deal in the grand scheme of things but at the end of the day, he shouldn't be there preaching in his official capacity as public school principal.

    If an atheist kid is going to school early and walks by to hear the principal preaching on school grounds, he has a cons utional right to be offended.

    Or don't be a got and continue about your day like every other unoffended atheist kid that walked by the same prayer group did that morning. I'm so tired of the pussification of society. Everything is now offensive.

    meh. there's just no need for it.

    If it was a Muslim preaching principal and a bunch of Christians got upset, I bet you wouldn't call them pussies. But we'll never know so that's that.

    When your children come home from school do you do a daily unindoctrination and let them know that the school daddy is paying for so they can have good teachers and better classmates is really full of crazy people who hate blacks and love guns?

    straw man. the offense is a taxpayer-paid employee, in official authority, preaching on govt property to kids.

    Govt employees can believe in whatever religious , but don't preach, proselytize on govt property to public school kids.

    There are some absolutely fantastic private Christian schools.
    In SA and surrounding areas anyways.

    Just because they teach about Christ does not automatically mean one can't get a good education.
    But why am I responding to you...

    This is for the board.

    I went to private Christian school too.

    I encourage my kid to keep asking questions in Bible class when something doesn't make sense.
