Ky. school trip included baptisms
By Andrew Wolfson, The (Louisville) Courier Journal
LOUISVILLE — A mother is angry about a trip led by the head
football coach at Breckinridge County High School. The coach took about
20 players on a school bus late last month to his church, where nearly
half of them — including her son — were baptized.

Michelle Ammons said her 16-year-old son was baptized without her
knowledge and consent, and she is upset that a public school bus was
used to take players to a church service — and that the school
district's superintendent was there and did not object.

"Nobody should push their faith on anybody else," said Ammons,
whose son, Robert Coffey, said Coach Scott Mooney told him and other
players that the Aug. 26 outing would include only a motivational
speaker and a free steak dinner.


The Breckinridge County schools did not show President Obama's "stay in
school and work hard" pep talk today, but...this *illegal* intrusion of
church into state is...ok...

Right-wing, fundie morons...sheesh.

Whoops, didn't notice you'd posted this...

Truly amazing story. This would earn a punch in the nose if this were
my kid's coach. A coach he'd be no longer...
