And in American public schools, there is no endorsement of any religion
except secular humanism.

Prove it.
Oh, and prove that "secular humanism" is a religion.
Thank you.

Calling SECULAR humanism a religion is an oxymoron...

I suspect he doesn't know the difference between "teaching about" and
"teaching his philosophy as fact".

Which is one of the fundies' more dishonest equivocations.
