> I don't mean to start an argument here, but do you actually believe that endorsing a specific religion is the same as endorsing gay rights?

I'm LGBT and agnostic.

Schools banning crosses and the Swiss banning burqa are very similar to the LGBT flag removal in Michigan. It's all censorship to enforce the ideology you agree with.

A free society would do none of these things.

Instead we have two angry sides playing games to anger one another.

I don't follow your logic. We have separation of church and state. Having religious symbols displayed by publicly funded schools violates that principle and favors the displayed religion(s). Protecting everyone's right to religious freedom requires not favoring any specific religions. This is pro first amendment.

An LGBT flag is a symbol of support for people who are not cis and straight. It is not a religious symbol. It is not infringing on any individual's right to practice their own religion. This is pro first amendment.

Banning burqas is oppressing muslim students' right to practice their religion, and is anti first amendment.

I think OP is referring to schools banning students from wearing crosses etc.
