A Case Study in Why Religious Right Myths Never Die
Just last week, we noted that the story of Brynn Williams, a six-year old public school student who was supposedly banned from delivering her Christmas presentation in class because of its Christian content, was totally false.
This particular case was ginned up by a California-based group called Advocates for Faith & Freedom which has now decided, even though the entire case is bogus, to continue trying to make an issue out of it:
Legal group Advocates for Faith and Freedom is defending two California students who were censored by school officials when they shared their Christian faith.
The families of Isaiah Martinez and Brynn Williams asked for legal assistance after teachers prevented them from sharing the true meaning of Christmas …
Williams, a Temecula Valley first grader, brought a Star of Bethlehem from her family’s Christmas tree as a show-and-tell assignment, OneNewsNow reported.
