A-Schools-114353619.html Synopsis: Freedom From Religion Foundantion sends threatening letter to school board in Virginia telling them that they will sue if the 10 Commandments are not removed from the walls of classrooms. School board, on advice of their attorney, take the Commandments down. Parents in system sign pettition to bring Commandments back. School board, knowing that they work for the parents, vote to bring Commandments back.
Quote from Freedom From Religion Foundation spokesperson after hearing that parents aren't going to put up with empty threats:
"Anybody with any common sense could see why you cannot put religious dogma on the walls of the school," she told the paper. "This is just a travesty; it's shocking." Shocking is school boards that cave to empty threats at the advice of counsel.
A travesty is parents who just sit on their hands.
Kudos to the Virginia school system.
