If it is, as it claims to be, a champion of Constitutional rights then I don't understand why the ACLU isn't all over this case. You have an activist judge making a clearly unconstitutional ruling that a specific religious doctrine was too strict therefore the child can't be schooled at home by the mother.

Oh! But wait. The religion is a Christian one. And the mother isn't teaching the ACLU-approved values of choice and secular thought.

I am not sure that I would agree with the mother's religion but I strongly disagree with the judge's actions. The government has no right to determine what religion a child is taught by the child's parents. That goes for Christianity, Judaism, Buddhism, Islam, or Jedi-knight-ism. The individual right of religion, which is why the Pilgrims came here, is protected in the 1st Amendment to the Constitution.

I suggest that instead of ordering the child to public school, the judge be ordered back to law school. Clearly she has no business sitting on the bench when she doesn't understand the Constitution.
