If you can show me how anti-Bush or satanic posters are
logically relevant to a geography class, I'll be more than happy to concede.
The action depicted in the poster in question represented a major turning point in the Revolutionary War. It's an artist's depiction of a relevant historical event, not some type of religious or political commentary.
It was a symbolic event. The fledgling American military was near disaster at Valley Forge. Between the Brits and the horrible winter, American was on the verge of being stillborn. Washington found strength from his prayer, and it enabled him to keep the Continental Army together. To say otherwise is to spit on the legacy of our founding fathers.
To be at the brink of death, morale dwindling away, the forces of the enemy closing around, all else seeming to be hopeless, but to find the strength to embolden one to go on and push for victory -
that is what this picture is about. Look again. A truly inspirational moment in our history I say.
The constitution recognizes freedom
of religion, not freedom
from religion. How a
poster depicting a curriculum-relevent event can be considered "pushing religion" is beyond me.
