AP Poll that shows majority of Americans support the idea of chaplins in schools.

Some constitutional 'challenges' here, but as long as they were like military chaplins and were non-denominational and/or set up to talk to all people... or if a 'rotating' group of volunteer pastors, priests, Imam's and Rabbi's from the community could provide 'guidance' for kids that clearly they aren't going to get from the "Guidance counselor who says 'you go to Harvard... You become a Carpenter... you find mines." And, yes, let in the Buddhists and anyone else who can provide good counseling (but not prostletising sp?) could offer kids a place to talk and get a better dialectic than your average idiot guidance counselor.

As I have said many times, I'm not religious. But very much support the good religion can do in communities. (Crusades and Jihads and blowing holes in Bandsmen aside)... this sounds like a good idea to me. It certainly can't hurt.

What says the Hide?

This, of course, would make the left's heads explode.

PS. And I know... the Atheists and the Satanists would demand equal time. But if they aren't established in a community, well, let us know after you have a legit church, a legit divinities background, and a legit 'something to add.' The concept is good. But, well, the Devil will be in the details, won't it?
