See, for conservatives, it's not about "rights as a parent" or "personal choice" for everyone. It's always about them getting their way no matter what. They care nothing about personal choice and rights of people who don't fit into their very narrow world view.

Diversity is central to what human beings are. Diversity enriches us and makes us stronger. It makes no sense to attack diversity. Alas, many fear what they do not understand.

If parents really care then this is a splendid opportunity to launch that attack against dogmatic religion that I keep talking about. We will have to make this complete by demanding all religious jewelry and clothing be including as intolerable for official government paid business or recreation. If Dems do that then we might knock out a few more social problems with one issue.

As soon as they can get sanctioned prayer into schools, they can start fighting about "which prayer".
Fightin' and winnin' is what it's about.
Religion is for rattlesnakes, hornets and bees

Christian Theists do not view their teachings as indoctrination but as a mandate or "the great commission" from their god.

Of course to everyone else it is absolutely indoctrination.

Skip praying and start teaching students what they need to know. They will be better off with a religious free environment.
