The original question isn't worth answering, so I'm commenting on Lindsey M's answer
I am a Christian, but I agree that we shouldn't force religion on anyone. Religion and/or the Christian faith is not something that you can tell someone to believe. They have to decide on their own.
But why is everyone only concerned with keeping CHRISTIAN beliefs out of schools or anywhere else? They don't seem nearly as worried about keeping tabs on Wicca or Mormonism or Islam or atheism. (Yes, atheism is a religion. Its god is Self. And it takes a huge amount of faith to believe in Evolution.)
I think that kids should at least have the opportunity to analyze all sides of the argument. For instance, concerning the creation/evolution debate - I think that schools should continue setting forth the theory of Evolution. That's a belief many people have, and there's no truthful way around that. HOWEVER: It should not be taught as a FACT. It should be stressed that this is a scientific THEORY, and Intelligent Design (basically, Creationism) should also be set forth as another theory (although as a Christian, I believe it to be a fact since God said it in the Bible.). This way, we have true equality and freedom of choice, since the kid himself is choosing what he believes rather than whichever party happens to have control of the school at the time.

No matter how much you fight, that will never change the fact that public schools have no right to force religion on people.

I'm guessing these people are starving from a lack of food because their government is corrupt and hording all the wealth,
I would suggest we collect money to buy bibles and have a plane drop the Bibles on the people,
because then they can get saved and thats more important than them eating food.

Find a born again believer and pray.Matthew 18:19 power of prayer agreement.
Matthew 18
19Again I say unto you, That if two of you shall agree on earth as touching any thing that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father which is in heaven.
20For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.

John 3:16[kjv] For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
so when we believe in JESUS we have eternal life.JESUS lived a sinless life and gave up his life as a sacrifice so we can be sin free. Ask JESUS to come into your heart and forgive ur sins and cleanse ur past with the blood JESUS shed on the cross.
With a simple prayer like above u can be saved.JESUS loves u and wants u to be saved.

There is separation of church and state... A law that protects kids from religious teaching in their classrooms! If you want to teach them religion, keep it in church or your home.. Not all people are Christians... And it should not be in schools!!
