The decision was an extremely unsound one. The Supreme Court's modern hypervigilance on religious issues is incoherent and invalid.
The Alabama law in this case does not respect the establishment of religion; it merely facilitates the free exercise of religion. No student is being compelled to pray, or instructed to engage in a religious activity. It is quite apparent that students are allowed to use the moment of silence for a multitude of purposes: for prayer, for thoughtful contemplation, for meditation, and so forth.
