Context does matter, and that article provides none. It doesn't clarify at all what religious messages are. But the little context we do have, speaking about Jesus and such, seems totally unneccesary and MLK would obviously be against that. His speeches weren't at public schools or to teenage audiences held captive and forced to listen. He was against that. Instead he spoke to people who wanted to show up and listen.
So these people are totally abusing MLK's beliefs. He was against religious messages in schools. I'd like to know exactly what was said, since that is not covered in the article, and they make a big deal about the gospel music but don't cover at all the religious messages or what exactly that was.
I can only suspect what it is, largely based on that they don't mention at all the context of it. If it was appropriate, I can't think of a reason why they wouldn't. If it was preachy and prayers, I can see why they wouldn't mention it.
