It's a shame we've come to this point in our country where we ignore this vital fact. Going to suck really bad for those trying shout down Christian Prayers come Judgement Day. But you've done your part by warning them :)

Wait, so are Jesus and his father separate entities? (BTW, I’m not against prayer in public...not even ‘Christian’ prayer.)

In a saner time when I was involved in a local government, the problem was solved simply by rotating the prayer leader. While many, but not all, of the Christian clergy avoided mentioning Jesus when they led the prayer, a respected local rabbi who was called upon to lead the prayer in early December, invoked his name and won a lot of friends.
We absolutely must pray ONLY in the name of Jesus Christ, or we are bringing God's wrath upon ourselves.
The Christian faith is based on the Bible. We are not to add or take away anything from it. It is God's Law Word.
God is a jealous God, his justice is perfect. If we make deals with each other, those deals do absolutely nothing to protect us from his wrath. The Bible is what Christianity is based on and it is very clear: God wants us to obey his Law Word.

Wait, so are Jesus and his father separate entities?Personally, I am of the opinion that scriptures mean what they say.
Others are of the opinion that majority opinion/interpretation prevails. They consider it "settled doctrine" because it was duly voted on by the Council of Nicea in 325 a.d. Jan Hus was burned at the stake for questioning it 1090 years later.

To: Vigilanteman
So you say, “Yes.” Separate entities?
To: Phinneous
Like Jan Hus, I am open to that interpretation. However, I am not sure that Hus ever declared it to be the only correct interpretation.
I also maintain a healthy suspicion of any theology which feels it is necessary to enforce their doctrine by burning people at the stake, beheading them, etc.
