My point still stands. If these were Buddhist, Muslim, or Hindu quotes, you Christian fundamentalists would have a coronary running to try and file a complaint.
No religious views should be stressed at school functions. Wait until Sunday, or have a prayer after the game or something. Don't force non-Christians to read your propaganda.
Sure, it's uplifting to you guys, and if it wasn't a scripture it would have been to me too. Just leave the book, verse, and any reference to God out of it. You can be inspirational without name-dropping God.
Honestly, I'm glad they banned the signs. I wouldn't want scripture and God thrown in my face every time I went to a high school football game. What if it was the other way around? What if every sign said "Do this for yourself, not God." or "God isn't helping us win this game, hard work is."
Wonder how long that would last.
To the people saying "file a complaint on the basis of separation of church and state" for the Obamapraise thing, do you understand what "separation of church and state" means? Obviously not. The church isn't even involved.
While I agree that kids shouldn't be made to praise the president using such ineffectual logic does not help your case.
