Should writing a book report on the book of Acts in the Bible be ruled unconstitutional ?

We Answered:

No. The first amendment says "Congress shall make no law respecting the establishment of religion nor prohiting the free exercise thereof..."
Congress is those two legislative bodies in Washington DC called the Senate and the House of Representatives. They aren't allowed to pass laws establishing a national religion nor laws prohibiting people from practicing their religion freely.
It says nothing about schools and students book reports.

The tenth amendment says, "The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution nor prohibited by it to the States are reserved to the States respectively or to the people."

This means if the Constitution doesn't give a power to the federal government, then that power is left to each individual state or to the people.

"Seperation of church and state" is not in the Constitution. I comes from a letter Thomas Jefferson wrote to a Baptist clergyman that was worried about which rights Baptist would have under the first amendment.
Thomas Jefferson basically said, don't worry, you're right to practice your Baptist faith is in no danger because there is a wall of "seperation" between "church and state."
The "seperation of church and state" line was about protecting religion from the government, not the otherway around.
The idea that the Constitution was written so non religious people wouldn't have to put up with religious people beliefs is absurd. In a country with freedom of expression everybody has to put up with hearing things that they don't like or don't agree with. Somebody might be offended by someone else doing a book report on "Don Quixote" or "To Kill A Mockingbird". The constitution does not grant us the right to not be offended.
So if a kid wants to do a book report on the book of Acts, there is absolutely nothing unconstitutional about it. The courts would agree.
If a teacher required kids to do a book report on the book of Acts, the current courts would likely say that's unconstitutional. I think whether that would be constitutional or not is debatable, because a teacher is not a federal legislator that can pass laws. To strictly follow the original intent of the constitution, I think it would be up to the state law, local law, or school board to determine.
Most issues are best solve at the local level.
