San Diego Superior Court employees have filed a lawsuit against their supervisors for banning their weekly Bible studies held in the courthouse during lunch. The employees were told that having the study on government property would be a violation of the so-called separation of church and state.
Other groups are allowed to hold their meetings in the building.
Jennifer Monk of Advocates for Faith and Freedom is representing the employees. Monk told OneNewsNow.com that court officials should know it is not a violation of church and state for a group to hold a voluntary Bible study during free time.
The employees have agreed to drop the lawsuit if the courthouse allows the Bible study to resume.
