I ask the following question for edification   -- How does  one square this 
decision with the 4th Cir's willingness to permit the Wiccan  woman to be 
excluded from delivering prayers at city council meetings?  I'm  blanking on the 
name of the latter case, but it would seem that equality is at  issue in both 
cases, and the results would seem at first blush in conflict with  each other.  
 
And what position did CLS take on the Wiccan case, if any?

This is  the case's second trip to the 4th Circuit, and once again the
court  invalidates the Montgomery County School District's various
machinations to  prevent the Good News Club access on equal terms to the
forum of take-home  flyers given to the students.
