I don't follow. Government should have no involvement with education at all, which is what the Alliance for the Separation of School and State advocates.
That's only one side. Some believe in the Right to Freedom of Religion.
If the children want to pray, they should be able to pray at any time. It should not be endorsed, nor omitted.
I believe prayer should be as natural ( actually more) as homosexuality is at a public school.
If they can worship mother earth , Alla the moon God , should they not be allowed to worship the God of Abraham as well?
BUMP.
This bears repeating: separation of school and state -- the only *real* answer.
