Somewhat Agree
1) I don't think a Church-State issue exists in a public park. No one soliciting for their viewpoint in a public park or on a public street bears the imprimitur of the State. Schools are a different kettle of fish, although an argument could be made that if a fee is paid for their usage which relects the cost, plus reasonable profit, then they bear no more of the imprimitur than would the Marriot for hosting a conference for their usual fee. But subsidizing their use would be a definite no-no.
2) safety. Agreed. Children are in a special zone.
3) The necessity of permits must be subject to a standard of reasonableness, and it must be administered in a content neutral manner.
4) All religious groups must be treated equally.
