Kids complain all the time that what they need to do, or whats happened to them is not fair, to which most parents will respond, Life's not fair, so deal with it, and that is a true statement, I am not worried about making things fair, although this is one of Obamas main motivations in his economic plan. Its just a poor way of guiding our society.
I don't know who wants to build Church's with federal money or wanting religion to be taught in schools,you reading way to much into this.
Would you be against a group of students having a bible club on their own as a before or after school activity? Its a religious activity on government property? Thats the issue.
Other groups can do it, sports groups, gay and lesbian groups, etc. But not religious groups, so you see it is a issue of free speech, and an impediment to exercising freedom of religion, when they discriminate saying that most other groups can meet their but if its religious they can't.

Please try avoiding the word "Obama" in your post, it just makes me angry.
Hmm, I always thought that separation of church and state was a good way to ensure freedom of religion. We don't have a government chosen and sponsored religion. Why do you want to bring a religious activity to a government building? Doesn't your church offer after school religious activities? Mine does. If your church is too cheap or you are not active enough in it to arrange such an activity at your church, perhaps you should pick a different church? Use your church to support your choice of religion. I don't use my church to teach my kids math, science or reading. You certainly still have freedom of religion and freedom of speech when you practice your religion outside of government buildings. I don't see bible studies going on at work, but some employers that I have worked for have had bowling, soccer and softball leagues. Is my employer interfering with my freedom of religion or my freedom of speech? I don't see it that way.
