After a large posting of the Ten Commandments was removed for the second time from a Giles High School wall, kids began hanging the Commandments on their lockers, WVVA reports. Students of other religions began posting their beliefs as a response, a move that kids say has caused some tension.
"The students that want them taken down -- they got mad about the people who want them up. And it almost broke out into a physical fight because someone called someone else an atheist."
The Ten Commandments wall posting was removed after parents contacted Freedom From Religion, which threatened to sue the school board. The Madison, Wisc.-based organization said they'd be be monitoring the school -- in conjunction with the ACLU of Virginia -- to make sure they don't re-post.
Questions for debate:
1) Are students violating the constitution by posting the 10 commandments on their lockers?
2) Would the school's administration be violating the constitution by allowing them to do so? Are they violating the constitution by NOT allowing them to do so?
3) What actions should schools take in these types of situations to enhance the edcucation of students?
