> A kindergartner who included God on his list of

'favorite things' has been expelled from his California school for

breaching the wall between church and state. School officials say that

three-year old Jacob Sapperstein can return to school next week, after

counselors have had a chance to assess the damage done to his classmates.

kindergarten ended in tears and restraints for one three-year-old

Sapperstein was being led away in a squad car, charged with breaching

the wall between church and state.

listing a few items that they like best. " Some kids write down 'mom'

or 'dad' or maybe the name of a pet, even a favorite video game. " As

the children practiced writing on wide-lined paper, Ms. Rusty went

from desk to desk supervising their work. " As soon as I saw what Jacob

had written, I knew we were in big trouble. "
