I agree 100%. I just am afraid that with the way it is written that if a school rents out auditorium to a religious group to use, then they have religious activities and get 0 funding. That is wrong to me. Now if the decision is made that since you get x amount from renting out for religious activities then your funding is reduced by x amount, I think that is fair. It allows more money to be used elsewhere without cutting all funding for those who do this.
