I am such a liberal, I actually oppose this ruling, as a liberal. Here is why.
It is not because I think that local tax payers should fund private religious
beliefs. It is because it is the state controlling what we as individuals
want to learn and study.
I fear the government saying, "You cannot learn about this", or "You can only
that which we approve of you to learn."
What if I want to go to school and learn about Christianity, Islam, Hinduism,
and Judaism and compare the four, write a book and earn a living that way?
What if because I never truly learn about Christ because I didn't get an
education and go to "Christ Church" instead and become a homophobic, sexist,
racist, anti-Semitic and self-righteous pig that preaches that Christ is also a
homophobic, sexist, racist, anti-Semitic, self-righteous pig that always votes
Republican?
Perhaps more people need a better understanding of religion, not a lack of
understanding. Since when has less education been better than no education?
The state is promoting ignorance and fear, over education and thinking for
oneself.
I cannot see how any true liberal can be in favor of blocking education.
