Steve Ahlquist – Jessica’s uncle – has a plan for what to do next, to benefit Cranston public schools, which he posted at the Facebook group Support the Removal of the Cranston High School West Prayer.
Awhile back, the Cranston school committee cut funding for music at their schools, because of budgetary concerns. In response, a group of concerned parents formed a group called BASICS, which I’ll find a link to soon, with the aim of restoring the programs. Raising money for the City of Cranston or the school committee would not allow them to “learn their lesson” but funding BASICS will put money directly into cut programs. The school committee will still have to pay, but the kids could still have their programs, no thanks to the recalcitrant members of the Cranston political elite.
He mentioned that he wants to get the big atheist bloggers like Hemant, PZ, and Rebecca to support it – so I figure he wants to get average-size atheist bloggers to support it too.
Pass it on.

Your link is wrong – think you typed freethoughtblogs instead of facebook.

Ah…no actually I just copied the name and thought it had turned itself into a link. It tricked me.

Hi Fred! I’ve come to be able to easily recognize spam!

Haw! I miss some of it these days – it’s coming in fast and furious and one occasionally evades the filter.
