that is not true

I hope that during those religious indoctrination sessions in the public school, they teach the kids that deceit and dishonesty are not hallmarks of the Christian religion.

There is no public school anywhere in America that can stop students from praying. As long as there are exams to be passed, football games to win, and pretty girls to ask to the prom, there will be prayers in school ... just as there always have been.

Of course, as it is now, prayers are as they are meant to be: silent communication with our God...not religious performance art which has little to do with God or prayer.
