Kids can pray read the bible in school when ever they want they can even have christian clubs on school property

Our schools are kept secular to stop religious conditioning of our children, whose young and impressionable minds are more susceptible to falling victim to this.
An example on religious conditioning is how the typical religious person is made:
It starts with a clean slate. Newborn babies are that clean slate, for they are less likely to question what they are taught as fact from those they trust when they knew no better. When this child is born, it is subjected, at the earliest age possible, to religious ritual. For example, Christianity and the baptism. Already, that human being is being forced into a ritual and religion without their consent, whether they understand what is going on or not is not relevant. It is not their choice.
As they grow older, they are told over and over by their parents, who they trust instinctively to teach them facts, about that religion and ideals. They grow up at their most vulnerable stages being told that these religious beliefs are fact. They go to Sunday School, and are taught that no other religion is correct, that the others are considered cults, and that if one is a member of said cult or a nonbeliever at all, they instill the fear of hell and punishment into these still innocent and vulnerable minds.
Who wouldn't believe their parents? Growing up, they are the first and most trusted teachers. They confirm all of the taught lessons from church and Sunday School, so in these children's heads, it must be true. Hearing the same information every day also would add validity in their minds and further plant this information into their brains. They are getting confirmation that these beliefs are correct in every aspect of life: home, school, and church.
The very least that a good society can do is remove this brainwashing from our schools by keeping them secular.
