I'm a Deist, whatever that is, but I would never permit a prayer invoking God related to anything government, like the Pledge of Allegience or prayer in Congress, out of respect to those who claim to be Atheists, whatever that is. It's called separation of state and church, like that now in Iraq. I feel all of you are wrong here as you are on the invasion of Iraq. We can win the war but lose the peace for generations to come. And that's stupid.

Separation of church and state is an artifice that Jefferson wrote about in 1803 to the Danbury Baptists in Connecticut.
There is nothing in the Constitution about it. You can climb down from your soapbox now.
