The Supreme Court agreed on Friday to consider a high-profile case that could open the door to allowing public dollars to directly fund religious schools.

The widely watched case out of Oklahoma could transform the line between church and state in education, and it will come before a court whose conservative majority has broadly embraced the role of religion in public life.

The case centers on a proposal for the nation’s first religious charter school, St. Isidore of Seville Catholic Virtual School. The school would be online, and its curriculum would embed religious teachings throughout lessons, including in math and reading classes.

As a charter school, it would be run independently from traditional public schools. But public taxpayer dollars would pay for the school, and it would be free for students. The question of whether the government can fully finance a religious school has proved especially divisive within the school choice movement and across Oklahoma.

They urged the Supreme Court to take up the case, believing the conservative-leaning court would decide in the school’s favor.

A coalition of religious leaders, advocates of public schools and some other state Republicans say the proposal is unconstitutional. Oklahoma’s Republican attorney general, Gentner Drummond, argued it would “open the floodgates and force taxpayers to fund all manner of religious indoctrination, including radical Islam or even the Church of Satan.”

The OK SCOTUS wrote in a majority opinion that the school would “create a slippery slope” that could lead to “the destruction of Oklahomans’ freedom to practice religion. Still, as more Republican state legislatures move to support school vouchers and other options for parents to use public money to educate their children in private schools, including religious schools.

The case will present new education questions for the 6-to-3 conservative majority, which has shown an openness to religion in the public sphere.

1930's Germans could at least plead ignorance about what their leaders were doing (although they were delighted to take over Jewish businesses and see the true owners "leave"). Neo-Nazis don't have that; they know exactly what their beliefs lead to, and they want it.

They'll add trans people to the list of Jews, Gays, non-Whites, Gypsies, etc., but it's always just people to feel superior to and oppress.

Before everyone gets toxic (a lot going around unfortunately), I'm not referring to fathers who where denied visitation rights because they were physically/sexuality abusive. There are many fathers who are on the receiving end of vindictive mother's who uses her children as political pawns to hurt/get at her ex, not allowing the to see his children are one of the vindictive tools used. It's my opinion, if the father is making an effort to be a good father and be in his children's lives, but the mother is being vindictive, then he shouldn't be forced to pay child support until the mother stops being vindictive.

I feel like they sleep in different rooms.

What women do for money and status 🙈

Trump is ending all this woke nonsense?

Racists killed martin Luther King but J. F. K assassination was a mystery

This question is in regards to every American election after the year 2020 but this election is chosen becuase, The 2020 election is the only election that had many americans doubt the legitimacy based on conspiracy theories. Under the circumstances that you are the last person in america that has to decide the fate of the country. What will you chose?
(Let me stress the Facts clearly)

Choice Stolen election- you chose conspiracy theory. You chose to have our country continue deeper into delusional turmoil and letting one person the president of the united states decide what is real and not real by using conspiracy theories, that were proven untrue. made followers believe the conspiracy theories to be absolute facts, then actively plan to change the laws and constituition to ones that are to their liking based solely on their wants and personal benefits, regardless of how it negatively affects anyone else. As a result of changed laws Fact checking disappears so more people will have a harder time telling what is true from what is false. The constitution and america is stepped on. America loses respect

Choice Fair election- you chose literal Logic. Based on years of vote registration improvement you chose not to let conspiracy theories affect your better judgement, this in turn results in the countries laws being up held, fact checking remains a integral part of free speech, the country remains simply as it has been, with an unwavering constitution that is sure to help our country stand proud everyday knowing we do what is right by the laws. America remains respected across the world seeing how it handled a rebound from being misguided from within.

Many of the EMS systems in this nation are underdeveloped and crippling both financially and with staffing.

Since its inception in 1969, modern EMS has been on the backburner for most politicians. Many areas don't even have an EMS first-response system in place, where trained persons treat patients until an ambulance arrives on scene.

Instead, we focus on stupid crap, like tranny rights, but this issue often gets ignored.

EMS and fire are often treated as the "red-headed step children" of the public safety world. They are often second-class to law enforcement.

Th decision granting Trump immunity for all of his crimes seems lie the worst of all, and I think there will be more to come of this to come. What do you think?

Kinda ironic some blue lives matter supporters would support January 6th 2021 don't you think?

Do you think it's misogynistic to be anti-feminist?

Misogyny is defined as "hatred, dislike, or mistrust of women, manifested in various forms such as physical intimidation and abuse, sexual harassment and rape, social shunning and ostracism".

What do you think? Can one love, respect, and appreciate women without being a feminist?
