Gee Karatemom I didn't know that you were an organization. Or that you expected the government to give you volunteer credit hours for going to church or trying to witness/convert people to Christianity. That would be kind of stupid of them don't you think? It would seem to be in conflict with the first amendment after all.
As usual with you, you simply have no idea what you are talking about and are completly wrong. This bill does not say what you think it does nor does it do what you say it does.
