Last week, I posted about a public high school in Notasulga, Alabama where the head coach of the football team was among a of staffers hosting a baptism for students on school property. The Freedom From Religion Foundation wrote a letter to the administrators at Reeltown High School and its district urging them to put a stop to this before a lawsuit has to settle the matter for them. It was the appropriate move since this was obviously a promotion of Christianity by taxpayer-funded officials.

It’s hardly a shock that some people in the community aren’t taking that well. But one of the critics is Rep. Bradley Byrne, a Republican who represents Alabama in the U.S. House and is gunning for the Senate seat currently held by Democrat Doug Jones.
