Written by Don ByrdA quick update of a story I have been following here at the blog (earlier post here). A portrait depicting Christ hanging in the hall of a Jackson, Ohio middle school and the subject of a church-state lawsuit, has been moved to the high school. The School District’s primary defense is an argument that the portrait is owned by a student club, and therefore not government speech. The only problem? No members of that club are in the middle school where the portrait hangs.
Written by Don ByrdIf a School Board in Ohio has its way, a portrait of Christ will be able to remain in the hallway of a Middle School. But that hallway could become crowded with pictures of all kinds of folks, leaving Jesus just one more face in a crowd.

The School Board of Jackson, Ohio will face an unusually large crowd at the meeting tonight when they discuss whether to heed the demands of a lawsuit and remove a painting depicting Jesus from a local Middle School, or to fight the issue in court.
