So to say "In Jesus' name, Amen." is "proselytizing"?

If your answer is "yes," there's no need for further argument as yours would be ludicrous.

"He wasn't invited to prosletyze. "

You could say that the Jews were prosletyzing by demanding Jesus be taken out of the prayer. It's two sides of the same coin.

We need to learn to respect each other's religious rights and differences in beliefs. Not homogenize and whitewash our beliefs until they are acceptable to everyone else. That's why not participating in a prayer should be acceptable, while forcing everyone to pray a watered down version that is acceptable to everyone will never work.

Neither are those mormon boys who show up on my doorstep.

What is your answer supposed to mean? What you say is true, but what does that have to do with him saying a prayer? Where was he asking anyone to convert?

Just what is your religious agenda?
