It seems the supreme court is on a "conservative" streak

It seems they're on a religious streak.

Another win for America!

Yeah! Public schools can now force religion on the students! America! Hell yeah!

A coach knelt and said a prayer all by himself on the 50. If you see that as forcing religion on students, the level of stupid you would be is off the charts. Please tell me you are just kidding here.

No. He consistently led the team in prayer

The Supreme Court’s conservatives ruled on Monday for a high school football coach who was reprimanded for leading postgame prayers on the football field’s 50-yard line.

so he forced the team to pray? And for bonus points, whom did the prayer hurt?

Wait until the Satanists want to pray on the football field as well and you'll need to let them. Equal protection and all that.

This is what I was getting at on page one. Satanism is considered a bonafide religion, so they have to be allowed the same freedom, although that is unlikely to happen.

Exactly like that. People exercising their Constitutional rights brings a tear to my eye.

I also agree with your derailing comments.

IWould supreme court rule the same for muslims who want to pray on a sports field during or after a game?

Doesnt seem like an important issue for the supreme court either way.

Also, a bit silly to be praying for your team to win. As if an almighty God is helping his believers win sports games.

Then again, who knows. Maybe God is a super sports fan.

Requoted for emphasis!

But in September 2015, the Bremerton School District learned what he was doing when an opposing team's coach told Bremerton High School's principal that Kennedy asked his players to join him for the post-game prayer

God doesn't care about the NFL, let alone some dopey high school team, because if he did he would have nuked the Philthadelphia Eagles from orbit by now.

They are wrong and being intellectually dishonest, again.

Kennedy asked his players to join him for the post-game prayer

They are wrong.

No theyre not, he told people they could join if they want, THATS THEIR RELIGOUS freedom

Sorry im going to Trust the SCOTUS more readily than someone on ATS whose consistently wrong on their assessments ,heavily heavily influenced by his ideology, and doesnt know the actual wording of the Constitution or bill of rights

asked or forced? Were they mandated to pray? Or are mandates not a thing anymore?

a reply to: optimisticcontrarian

Sure just my opinion. I think it should all be allowed . Including kneeling during the star spangled banner. Freedom of speech.

As long as kids aren't being forced to pray or whatever.

I want to see the same gusto from both sides when an islamic prayer gets done on the sidelines🤣

It wasn't personal, it had players participating.

I wonder how many players would participate. I don't have an issue with it, I would find it kind of funny. Go to some places with a big Indian population and watch the win luck dance. It is both sad and damn funny how so many on both sides can get so easily triggered.

I don't have an issue with it...

Me neither, just pointing out that when you open the door for one you open it for all.
