ALMIGHTY BATTLE: 1st Amendment fight brews over school's 'prayer room'



It was Liberals in New York who started the push to remove prayer from the public schools.
  Isn't it eye opening how Libs made a prayer room available to Muslims in Texas?  Just one problem.  A room must be made available for all faiths including Christianity.  And if this accommodation brings prayer back into all public schools nationwide,  it's a good thing and Libs won't have a leg to stand on in protest.   
Fox News reports a Texas high school's on-site prayer room -- which serves as a spot where Muslim students can pray -- is stirring controversy.

Liberty High School in Frisco established the room in 2009, but Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton is concerned that the room may be off-limits to students of other religious denominations.
He said in a letter Friday to the school district that any exclusion would be inconsistent with the First Amendment’s protection of religious liberty.

A school district spokesman responded that the classroom is available to “students of all walks of life” in the afternoon when it is vacant.
The leader of a large Baptist church in Dallas told "Fox & Friends" Sunday that he is okay with the practice.
