So we are all agree now, churches can rent school property as long as the school is renting to eveyone else. But just as soon as the school discriminate against one group they have to stop renting to everyone else too.

I think we should be encouraging more groups to rent school property, which might help support the schools in this economy.

I can understand the elementary schools, but what happens when a high school hosts a weekend-long tournament? I suppose its already been agreed that they can't rent the property out at that time.

Yeah, I think if any group wants to rent it would have to follow the schedule the school sets out first and foremost.

Who ever said that a person requires a church building to worship? God is not contained in a enclosed environment as some might believe. The whole process begins in the soul of man and man need not bow down to a building nor a man....

You know...you are right. Jesus even we should worship God in spirit and in truth and that there were no "special" places anymore to worship. Sometimes it is the weakness of humanity that seem to need an building or object to focus on rather than God, Jesus and Holy Spirit Himself.
