    Question: Can I read my Bible in school to my self in class?

So if your teacher tells you your not allowed to read the bible in class, your not allowed; period. Just like they have the power to put you in uniforms and not allow you to carry bookbags.

    I don't think anyone can prevent anyone from praying or preaching. If you are not a Christian, you express your religion you you do it. NOBODY should stop you from what you believe in!
