Is the University of Montana illegally selectively desecrating a religion?
Is the University of Montana illegally selectively desecrating a religion? Seems to be so!

“Ken Toole, former director of the Montana Human Rights Network, will moderate the panel discussion, which is held in conjunction with the traveling exhibition “Speaking Volumes: Transforming Hate,” currently at the Montana Museum of Art & Culture. The exhibition features artists from across the United States who used white supremacist propaganda to create thought-provoking works of art.”
OUR HOLY BOOKS AND OUR RELIGION IS NOT PROPAGANDA.
I sent this letter to the president of the university at prestalk@umontana.edu:
[Mr George M. Dennison;
As the president of the University of Montana; you must cancel & remove the art exhibit "Speaking Volumes:Transforming Hate" from Missoula campus grounds and issue and apology immediately.
I must inform you that the University of Montana may be in violation of the first amendment of the United States. A common interpretation of the amendment regarding the states position is to prohibit "the preference of one religion over another or the support of a religious idea with no identifiable secular purpose" while the opposite can be interpreted as "selected desecration of a religion".
A civil suit may follow which you may be subpoenaed and forced to testify against the behalf of the University of Montana.
Below are links siting UMT's involvement with this violation and the federal governments recognition of Creativity as a religion "Chris Peterson v. Wilbur Communications". Also a letter from one of our leaders Rev Matt Hale.

A formal letter will be sent to you in the mail shortly regarding this matter. Other grounds for a civil and criminal suit may also follow later.
Have a nice day.]
I received a reply from their head lawyer.

Dear Mr. *********:
Please address all correspondence regarding The University of Montana art exhibit described in your February 21 email to President Dennison directly to me from this point forward. After I review the letter your email describes I’ll be responding on behalf of the University. Thanks.
