Just what is meant by “too Christian?”

If she wishes, she can always stay away from council meetings...or show up after the prayers are over.

The woman must have a lot of time on her hands.

I am not sure what she hopes to really gain from this, opening with a generic moment of prayer is not a violation of any rights. The attendees of the meeting do not have to pray along with those offering the prayer. Shoot, they can offer up a prayer to whatever they want or nothing at all, during the prayer time.

She cites the Bible to stop public prayers? Oh boy, lady.

She said she's offended because the praying goes against the teaching of Jesus. Heavily quoting the Bible, the lawsuit argues Jesus taught praying was not to be flaunted in public but to be done in private...

I'll counter with "Where two or more and gathered in My name, I am there in the midst of them."

The first amendment does not say “separation of church and state”. It says:

“Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.”

She says it’s “too Christian” then quotes Christ about how to pray.

A lawyer and a real estate agent. Some are outstanding but most are useless. Anyway, she’s a real estate agent and a lawyer? Tells me she’s probably not capable of making a living doing either so she spends $25 to file a case against the city. I hope all of her Christian clients, if she has any clients at all, walks away.

Jesus did say to pray in private. I have to admit that but I don’t have to like this person who quotes Him.
