1. I want equal funding for Madrasses in Austin and Dallas and Houston...

I demand that prayers towards Mecca be adhered to BY ALL STUDENTS, and that we have sharia-schools established with the same public funds (on a dollar for dollar basis) and then they can have all the Jeebsu and Young Earth Creationist nonsense they want...

BUT...we cannot forget about my Wiccan friends...or the Satanic Temple's monthly goat sacrifice in the school yard.
And while we're at it...I want to bring back the lottery for drawing the names of young virgins to be offered as burnt offerings...we'll start with a lottery limited to Abotts' family for the first drawing - you know, to avoid favoritism.

Or...

We could simply acknowledge that PUBLIC means SECULAR and PRIVATE means whatever religious BS you want to enforce and the two shalt ne'er mix. And if you want funding for ONE religious school or private entity, then you must support ALL of them equally.

Trust me Greg...its a lot easier to just accept that taking funding from public schools for religious ones is a path to nowhere good.
