A happy ending… but even so

From Pharyngula:

There was a weird court case [in Oklahoma] recently. Well, maybe not so weird, unfortunately – I could see it happening here. To make it short, an atheist girl in high school was kicked off a sports team because she wouldn’t join in team prayers; abuse ensued; school officials lied; the principal assaulted the father; police and principal perjured themselves to press charges against him; threats were made to try and drive the family out of the state.

Read the whole thing. Amazing. Simply amazing. (And depressing.)
