on the 9th circuit really believe in the so-called “separation
of church and state” or not? In a recent case they ruled it’s OK
to use state money for a religious education.

Joshua Davey graduated from his high school in Spokane,
Washington, in 1999 at the top of his class. And for that
achievement, he received a state-sponsored scholarship of
$1,125 for the first year, renewable for a second year at
more than $1,500. …when the state’s Higher Education
Coordinating Board found out about Davey’s plan of study, it
told him that he was losing his scholarship because of a rule
which says no aid shall be awarded to any student pursuing a
degree in theology.
