People are very divided on their views of freedom of religion. As shown in the charts, people strongly agree with some things that my be offensive to other people yet, they strongly disagree with very similar sitautions. For example, people think it is more than okay for rappers to say whatever offensive language that they want to put in their lyrics. On the other hand, the majortiy of people believed there should be no consequences for what people say or do outside of school that may offend a person and their religion. This shows that peoples beliefs about freedom of religion vary due to society. People are used to rappers saying harsh lingo and offensive language so in their eyes it is alright for that to continue and it is not violating anyone's rights. I think peers making harsh remarks or offending someones religion is much more hurtful, even if it is off of school grounds. Although I do agree that administrators should not be able to punish people for what they do out of school, strongly agreeing with one of these statements and stronglying disagreeing with the other is a complete contradiction of ones self.
I also read about religious clubs. There was an Equal Access Law Pass to prevent "widespread discrimination" in schools. If one club should be allowed to practice religion in school so should another. One is not better than the other. As long as the freedom of religion is not abused or disrupting the peace in the school it must be allowed and apply to every religion.
