Rob Franklin, a graduating high school senior who is heading off to art school, donates a painting to his high school depicting the Last Supper of Jesus and his apostles. Impressed by the quality of the work, Principal Bard hangs the painting in a hallway of the school. A year later, Ms. Greene, the parent of a ninth-grader, sees the painting when she visits the school for parent-teacher night. She later tells Principal Bard that the display of the painting is inappropriate and asks that it be taken down. Is the display of the painting permissible? Should Principal Bard take it down? Principal Bard should take down the painting because its display violates the Establishment Clause. The display is not temporary and integrated into a secular curriculum. Rather, it is a permanent display representing a central event to the Christian faith, and therefore advances and endorses religion. The fact that Rob donated the painting to the school does not diminish this endorsement. PROVIDED BY: Civil Rights Division

This doesn't violate the Constitution. Read the Constitution. Next you can point me to the all the different interpretations of the so called "Establishment Clause" and we'll notice how that doesn't fit with the Constitution. We can take every legal opinion and precedent and ruling, and see if they're valid to the actual Constitution. It'll be a fun game breaking all the layers of bullshite to see how we got to this point.
