She then fumed that a “pagan ritual” is “an educational experience my children don’t need.”
Sooooooooo...... they don't have to go. Seems simple to me?
I happen to be very biteable, pal. I'm moist and delicious.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
If it's in their backpacks, they'll think it's required by the school, and then their pore little pea brains will be taken over by the Pagans!!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
The real issue here is that childred should be protected from the knowledge that such things as paganism exists. See, even if the kids don't have to go to the pagan rituals, just the knowledge that there are such things will inevitably lead to the kids having gay abortions.

I'm just thinking about the original policy. It seems like if the backpack folder system is for official school stuff then religious material shouldn't be allowed and I can't see that being struck down in court (of course the school wouldn't want to end up in court). But if the system is for any student organization, then it should be open for Pagan and Christian alike.

Yes, that seems to be the petard they're hoist upon.

This is where I want to live when I win big in the lottery. The top floors of the Hotel Pierre in Manhattan.
That place has some beautiful architecture, particularly the ballroom. But given the frequency with which I watch Ghostbusters, it would seem like tempting fate.
It's not the $70 million that's the problem, it's the $464,600/yr maintenance.
It sounds as if it's the co-op board turning their noses up at people that's the real problem. If two different buyers can afford the $70 million asking price, they can afford the upkeep.

Didn't I tell you guys? I'm a left wing bleeding heart terrorist-loving gay-sheltering pagan whore! (Ask me how!)

What is even happening?

Exactly, and secular and religious alike, too. In other words, if a book club or a sports team can send out a notice, so can a(ny) religious group.
Yes, that seems to be the petard they're hoist upon.
Is there a 'they'?
