Bible club wins official recognition from school
bq.. Officials at Shorecrest High School reversed course and will grant a student-led Bible club recognition as an official “associated student body,” according to Agape News />
The school had denied the official status, citing concerns about the so-called “separation of church and state.”
The reversal came after The Rutherford Institute, a law firm that specializes in religious liberty cases, applied legal pressure.
Institute attorney Casey Mattox said he does not think the school intended to discriminate against Christians specifically, but acted on a constitutional misunderstanding.
That misunderstanding was “basically just an issue of misunderstanding what the First Amendment provides and what it means,” Mattox said.
