Daily Poll: Should Religious Groups Give Secular Programs in Public Schools?

By , About.com GuideJune 19, 2006

Follow me on:

It's becoming increasingly popular for religious groups to give secular programs in public schools, but then invite the students to attend more explicitly religious services in the evening. Thus the programs may provide a service to the schools, but they are essentially being used as advertising to a captive audience. Is this appropriate?

 

Daily Poll: Should religious groups be allowed to give secular programs in public schools, then invite students to religious, evangelistic programs later?

  1. Yes, though it may be unwise for administrators to do it.
  2. Yes, it's a great idea.
  3. No, it's wrong to endorse such groups in this way.
  4. I don't know.
  5. I don't care.
