    This is completely incorrect.

    You said: “Apparently that’s not what he’s standing up for. They’re not the right religion.”.

    I agreed; he’s clearly biased against Muslims but your statement showed no evidence that he was trying to push said “right religion” into schools either. In fact, he was going out of his way to keep even his own religion out of schools, out of fear that it would set precedent for others to establish religious schools he doesn’t like.

    Then you posted a quote where he blatantly stated his fear of a Muslim school being established, and I asked you to still provide evidence of where he’s trying to force his own religion anywhere.

    You then replied with a post where he TWICE said that any religion belongs at home as somehow proof that he’s favoring one religion over another.

    And then you said “The language he uses definitely shows a preference for a specific religion.”, seemingly failing to understand that he absolutely has a right to prefer a specific religion, so long as he keeps that religious preference out of the government and out of our schools. You have continued to show no evidence that he is attempting to force his own religious views into the issue. In fact, you’ve provided plenty of evidence contradicting your own talking point.

     There is nothing wrong with this guy having his own religious preferences. You have provided no evidence he’s trying to force his own or any other religion on anybody. Everything you yourself have shown so far points to him wanting all religion out of schools, even if those wants are itself based in bigotry. As long as he continues to support keeping all religion out of schools, I’m not really all that concerned over why.

      Lol, ok dude. I never said he was trying to force his religion into anything, you’re just making stuff up. I supported the OPs statement that bigotry against the wrong religions was the motivator here, not high-minded ideals about the separation of church and state, and I think that’s been substantiated by the evidence.
