Christian Art Banned at Public School
Here’s the latest dispatch from the front lines of the Culture War:
A Wisconsin teenager was punished at hish public high school for creating an art project that included a cross and a Bible verse. Tomah High School has a policy that bans any art that includes violence, sex or (ahem) religious symbolism.
Now the boy, who has not been identified, is suing the school district. It seems other students were allowed to draw demonic images and, according to the lawsuit, the art teacher is a passionate follower of Hinduism. But any Christian artwork is specifically outlawed.
The Alliance Defense Fund is a Christian legal advocacy group and they are representing the kid — claiming this is an outright case of religious discrimination — specificially against a Christian.
So what did the student do that was so outrageous? Well, he drew a landscape that featured a cross. Then he added the words “John 3:16 A sign of peace.” That was it. Enough to garner a failing grade.
And when he was shown a document that indicated he signed away his constitutional rights at the start of the school year, the boy tore up the document. That earned him a few days in detention.
According to the Associated Press, the school district has not commented.

Why do liberals hate Christianity? People like this school teacher won’t be satisfied until every thread of Christianity is erased from the nation.
Once again, we have indisputable evidence that public schools have a liberal, anti-God agenda.
When are people going to wise up and understand that our children are under attack. Public schools are doing their best to strip away the very faith that led to the founding of this nation. Private or homeschooling is the only option.
what a load of crap. fire the teacher!
once again — these liberals are doing what they can to bash christianity — but God help anybody who says anything bad about Muslims.
It's a sign that America would be another Israel that God chosee but left Him clinging to its own perversion. Christians in America are responsible for this. It's true that evil power never stops attacting God's people and nation. But Chiristians and churches in America, do you fight with it with all you heart,s all your strength, all your minds and all your souls? Christians are losing this battle. What a shame! Can God call you good and faithful servants when He comes on second time? Hope every Christian in this country to think about it and make a desicion and a commitment.
Wow! Go ART BOY! You've done well. Karen's right, too. We americans have been lazy cowards; most of us have had it too easy and don't get what He's asking for with "all our heart, mind , soul and strength. Being on it all day every day like it's a conspiracy and they're out to get us, because they are. we're to fight the evil with one hand and build the kingdom with the other
