"A Louisiana school district that has been riddled with religious lawsuits got some backing Wednesday after a panel of judges overturned a decision that had formerly barred them from opening their meetings with prayer.
The U.S. Court of Appeals for the 5th Circuit ruled that the Tangipahoa Parish School Board - which has had five religious-related lawsuits brought against it in the past 13 years - could not be held accountable for an "offended observer" and has the right to have voluntary prayer at their meetings.
According to attorneys from the faith-based legal group Alliance Defense Fund (ADF), the decision severely undercuts the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), which has been filing the suits, in their use of the Establishment Clause. "The court today has delivered a serious blow to the ACLU by affirming that the far left can no longer bully its way into court without any proven, concrete injury," explained ADF senior legal counsel Mike Johnson in a statement. Johnson presented the oral argument on behalf of the school board defendants on May 22.
