Coppy that.
The 'powers that be' no long want kids to have those things on their minds. They want them to adore the god known as the State.
I didn't say to do away with the U.S. Pledge....I said I could live without the prayer....
Maybe instead of the prayer they could have a school pledge?...Like
I pledge to be a better person today, I pledge not to bully my schoolmate today....
I pledge to respect others and in turn, myself...
Prayer belongs at home, in the church of ones choosing or within ones self...IMO
Oh...nothing like forcing someone to pray....so much for free....

Ahhhh...so there is a gun to ones head to force them to pray??? Please....While I personally don't have an issue with pray in school or not, if you dont want to pray, don't do it....
But it is ok judges force them not to say a prayer before games or gradations. That's holding a gun to someone's head when the government says don't do it or you go to jail.

When I was in school we had a prayer group and it was optional to attend. This took place in the gym at 7:15am and school started at 7:30.
The thing there was you don't wanna pray don't go. Never was a forced group but they made them do away with it too.

That is the way of the extreme left, and right. They only allow worship of themselves. They hate moral, upstanding people. They hate those they cannot control. In other words, they HATE.
Keep that in mind in November. Obama is cut from and mentored by the extreme left. He HATES. He WILL use FORCE to achieve the take over of the country. He will enslave.
When I was in school along with the morning announcements over the intercom we had a morning prayer. You could pray along, or not, you could listen, or not. But what you had to do was be respectful of others and sit there and be quiet. That's an important lesson which the morning prayer in school taught, and it's not being taught anymore. Ironically, the prayers were mostly non-denominational general prayers giving thanks for what we have, and asking God to bless the needy and less fortunate, and in asking for His will for others to respect respect their classmates and others, all very liberal things. As a devout agnostic, I didn't then and don't now have any problem with prayer in the schools. Not even a little bit, as long as the prayer or the function isn't to establish one particular religion over another.
Not to hi-jack the thread or anything, but why is asking for others to respect their classmates a liberal thing?
Seems like the proper thing to do regardless of one's political leaning.
