Atheists laud N.S. school board reversal of ban on 'offensive' Christian T-shirt.t

A national atheist organization is lauding Friday's reversal of a Nova Scotia school board ban on a Christian T-shirt worn by a Grade 12 student that was deemed offensive by some students and teachers at his school.
 
The Centre for Inquiry spokesman Justin Trottier told Postmedia News that he's "pleased" with the board's decision to allow Grade 12 student William Swinimer to wear a shirt with the words "Life is wasted without Jesus" when he returns to class on Monday after a five-day suspension.
