COLUMBINE SCHOOL BANS GOD FROM RENOVATION TILES

DENVER, January 14, 2003 (LifeSiteNews.com) – Columbine High School, the scene of 15 shootings on April 20, 1999 including a teacher and the two murderers, who shot themselves, is refusing to allow the father of one of the victims to mention God on one of several memorial tiles to be placed inside the school.  Brian Rohrbough, whose son Danny was killed in the shootings, says the U.S. Supreme Court has declined, without comment, to hear an appeal of a ruling that keeps families from having tiles that make reference to God from being placed with 4,000 others along the school’s corridors above the 6-foot-high lockers.  The school district explained that the tiles should not have a memorial theme, to avoid reminding students of the horror of that day—nor should they carry a religious theme, “observing the constitutional requirement that church and state remain separate.”  For FoxNews coverage see:  https://foxnews.com/story/0,2933,75448,00.html
