Please be in prayer about this. The outcome of this case will effect us all! Here is the essence of this case "Two longtime area residents who had gone to board meetings, Susan Galloway and Linda Stephens, were offended by what they heard in the prayers uniformly Christian in content, and worshipful in tone, in their view. It was not until after they objected, they would later say, that the board began bringing in some non-Christian prayer-givers, but that remained a distinct minority. They first protested to the town board, and then decided to hire a lawyer first, to question the board about the practice, and then to file a lawsuit."

God has already said the prayers of a righteous man availeth much. It really does not matter what the town coucil thinks or SCOTUS. God wins, people who pray win. And people who think they have the authority to overturn a sovereign God are sadly mistaken.

Invoking a higher power to remind us to use wisdom in our deliberations seems like an appropriate beginning to a meeting.
I think everyone but anarchists believe in a higher power.
I think there is a logical glitch in there somewhere in that our government believes that the people received their sovereignty from God, we then delegated a limited portion of that to our government. Our government then acknowledges that higher power at the beginning of meetings.
Those people that deny there is a higher power must therefore deny our sovereignty and the legitimacy of our government before whom they are pleading. Right?

I want the government to do nothing in the support of, or to prevent attacks upon, Christianity that I would not want it to do similarly in regards to Islam, Wicca or Santería.
As with wanting a vigorous, well funded and resourceful NSA and national security establishment when George Bush was President and then panicking about the powers of same apparatus when it was under the control of Obama...

the principles of all genuine liberty, and of wise laws and administrations are to be drawn from the Bible and sustained by its authority. The man therefore who weakens or destroys the divine authority of that book may be accessory to all the public disorders which society is doomed to suffer
