Today's Lexington (Massachusetts) Minuteman carries an op-ed piece by Carol Rose, executive director of the Massachusetts ACLU, critical of a suit filed last week against Lexington school officials by parents who claim that their religious freedom is infringed when, without prior notice, their children's classes discuss gay or lesbian issues, and when school textbooks depict gays and lesbians. Rose says that free exercise "has never meant that individual parents could demand prior notice of discussions in the public schools that might be at odds with one group's religious views."
