"When freedom of (or from) religion is guaranteed to every citizen, then no majority can
ever rule just because it is the majority. If only one student in a public school was not of
the religion of every other student, then it would unconstitutional for that student to be
subjected to the rites and rituals of the majority."

Why??? A public school, insitution, individual or state is not Congress. It is only Congress that must not interfere with states, individuals and public institutions rights to the free exercise of religion. Please read the First Amendment carefully. It is clearly and simply written.
