> The government or my employer cannot stop me from mentioning God or from prayer.

Your employer most likely *can* stop you from evangelizing on company property. "Stop you" as in "fire you."

> Just because it is a law does not make it right and if it is a bad law or an unlawful order, it is your duty to disobey.

Ah. So we *should* go back to our Viking roots and pillage churches!

You're being stupid! You sound like a liberal. I recognize - as do most others - that you cannot turn your workspace into a place of worship. But my employer cannot stop me from saying a prayer before I eat at my cubicle. They cannot stop me from mentioning God if I am talking to co-worker and am asked about it. In fact, many employers today have set up spaces within thier spaces for Christians to meet and pray. And of course, I recognize the fact that I could be fired. But it does not prevent me from mentioning it IF I SO CHOOSE! If I am fired for that reason, I will mention God all the way out the door BUT THEY CANNOT PHYSICALLY RESTRAIN ME FROM HAVING THE WORD GOD COME OUT OF MY MOUTH!

It was illegal for blacks to be at those lunch counters. Or ride in the front of those buses. Or drink from a particular fountain. Or even to swim in the ocean on a specific beach spot. Yet, all those laws were wrong. And any rule, law, or order to prevent anyone from mentioning God is equally unjust.

Go with God and may He bless you all the days of your life.

You are right that private employers can fire employees for what they say, but not so easily can public employers do this.
