But that might lead to understanding and tolerance!

Weekly Religious Education in VA
Jar,
In several rural areas in Virginia (the Town of Staunton was recently in the news) elementary school students are taken out of school and marched across town to local churches (pick your protestant flavor) and given a weekly religious education class. It is known as WRE (Weekly Religious Education) but is exclusively christian, and amazingly has been determined to be completely legal because they don't actually teach the religion in the school. Kids are able to opt out of the class, but if they do, they end up just sitting around in an empty classroom doing nothing while all the other students get a bus trip across town. And its apparantly been going on for quite some time now.
Here's a link about Staunton, VA WRE.
