Maryland Chief Legal Officer Rules Bible Reading Constitutional
Maryland Attorney General Ferdinand Sybert ruled that daily Bible reading in public schools is constitutional with objections allowed to excuse students from class. He warned objections do not justify absences and private schooling remains the recourse. The ruling follows a request sparked by Madalyn Murray and her son from Woodbourne Junior High amid a push for compulsory readings. Mrs Murray, an atheist, disputes the ruling and plans further action with her attorney.
