The Lawsuit Shoe...

...now is on the other foot:
    Opening a front in the national debate over mixing 
religion and academics, a Christian high school in
Riverside County has filed a federal discrimination
lawsuit against the University of California system,
alleging its rejection of the school’s ‘Christian
viewpoint’ classes unfairly prevents students from
meeting college admission requirements.
Incidentally, it’s nearly as *shocking* as low student graduation rates in big liberal cities controlled by Democrats that the ACLU is not cheerfully assisting those plaintiffs with that particular First Amendment case, huh?

Not!

The ACLU gave up on being a true, non-partisan advocacy group years and years ago. It’s now merely a left-wing organization populated by self-loathing rim shots.

In any event, it will be quite interesting to watch liberal academia and the liberal media out here in California (L.A. Times, San Francisco Chronicle, Sacramento Bee, San Jose Mercury News) twist themselves into pretzel-like knots while trying to justify their self-perpetuating hypocrisies about the First Amendment.

Memo to Left-Wing Ideologues:

The First Amendment is a *two-way* street. Yes, of course, it prevents the establishment of a state-sponsored religion. But it also prevents the gummint from prohibiting the free exercise thereof.

In other words, Mr. U.C. System, you can’t pick and choose the specific religious-oriented freedoms about which you’d like to be “PC.”
