Does Praying for a Sick Teacher Merit a School Suspension?

Apparently in California it may. This is almost hard to believe. Common sense seems to have left these folks. WorldNetDaily reports:

Attorneys representing two students who have been threatened with expulsion by a California college because of a prayer for a sick professor say a federal judge has refused the school's efforts to have the case dismissed.

"It's outrageous," said Brad Dacus, president of the Pacific Justice Institute, which is working on the case brought by students Kandy Kyriacou and Ojoma Omaga of the College of Alameda in Alameda, near Oakland.

"Since when does praying for a sick teacher to get well – with her consent – earn a suspension? This is not just a constitutional violation; it is a complete lack of common sense. These students were not looking for a fight, but since the school to this day insists that it can expel them if they pray again, we will have to resolve it in federal court," he said.

Readers, it seems that discrimination is legal against Christians. There is not much more to say. Here two students merely prayed for a teacher with her consent. Does this seem insane to you?
