I'm agnostic, I could give a flip about religion.
There are completely secular reasons to oppose both abortion and gay marriage.
The fact that most opposition is based upon religious belief neither invalidates that opposition, nor does it indicate an attempt to impose religious belief.
How does the inclusion of the word 'God' in a poem, in a third person narrative usage, no less, impose religious beliefs upon any one?
Does, or does not, the unconstitutional suppression of free religious expression, as occurred in the OP, in fact impose the secularist belief of the supposed atheist/agnostic onto those who believe in God?
In the case of the OP, it is not the rights of the secularist that are being trampled, but the rights of the student.

Never argue with an idiot. They drag you down to their level then beat you with experience.

Did you know that among the FFs there were (some, maybe many) that didn't want the rights under the 1st Amendment even put on paper. They knew that they were rights granted by God and that making them a part of the Constitution might give the false impression that the rights were granted by the government...which they are not.
They capitulated and put them in to show that the government didn't have control over those rights. Although that gets chipped away more and more everyday.Be Not Afraid.
