except for Christians, who aren't allowed to speak their own prayers in public. I'm one, and I wouldn't raise a ruckus if a Buddhist were giving an invocation;; why can't you bear to hear a christian profess his faith? If we really are the free-conscience multi-belief society you say, then why can't you allow others to express their beliefs?
Those who are so insecure in their own beliefs, that they cannot abide the notion that others may believe differently, ought not venture out of doors.
