Enforced prayer in schools

Thank you for exposing your ignorance so freely but you seem to have forgotten ONE of our Amendments.

It would be interesting to SEE where you got your new regulations for prayer. Would you mind posting your source? I bet you also think it is appropriate to use bad language and tell dirty jokes anywhere you want HUH?

Prayers belong in church and the home not crammed down the throats of our kids.


This, ladies and gentlemen is the most accurate statement posted on Go Wilkes this year!

I've truly never understood this issue.


What keeps anyone from praying anytime.
If yound children are taught from the beginning, like at home...that they can pray anytime anyplace, then it can and will become a habit.

Group prayers mean squat to anyone, especially when it is forced upon you.
and and and....tell me how many teachers are qualified to lead such prayer...dang they're barely qualified to teach much less pray!!!

and and and...what if you have teacher who just doesn't believe in the particular religion that the kids are indoctrinated into..then what

What if you have a Muslim that prays 5 times a day...you gonna give all them little kiddies a rug to pray on.

This truly is one of the most ridiculous issue in schools today.

dey supposed to be learning reeding righting and ripmatic!!!!

Let me help you. NONE will be enFORCED. Any would be optional with the choice to not attend. Best solution is to GET THEM OUT NOW.

I would venture to say the Public School System is the most dangerous place you could send your children
Physically, Mentally, and Spiritually

Consul - don't you know that truth is what I think it is. I mean how else do men think they can have babies? The actual truth is democrats only like the truth they make up. And since an actual moral standard such as Gods law doesn't allow for that .... Well He had to go.

As of 2023, 33% of the US identified as Protestant, 11% were Christian (nonspecific), 22% were Catholic, 2% were Jewish, 1% were Mormon, 6% were Other, 22% were None, and 3% didn't answer.

But only 45% said that religion was very important to them...


So while the ***ulative "Protestant" is the largest religion, it's also fair to say that 67% of the nation is NOT Protestant.

And consider the differences between Lutheran, Baptist, and Pentecostal... all Protestant, but drastically different beliefs.

I just can't imagine which denomination should be the one enforced.

If they are going to force religion in schools it should be the one true religion, it should be Catholicism

I never saw any forced praying either. Why would Hangs make up such a lie and utter it in public forums?

Did I forget escalating teen suicides?

I can remember a time when drag groomers were not dancing in public schools. Of course that was before drugs, teen pregnancies and perversion was the main topics being taught

Prayer has NEVER been banned in schools in the USA. That's a right wingnut talking point.

School officials can't force prayer.

I remember when prayer was banned in schools.

It was done because of one woman's doing. One person caused this. Madaline O'Hare.

She was later mudered. Her body was found stuffed in a barrel/

Her son became a Christian minister.

Always Interesting watching the 'mysterious ways of God'.

And by the way, the dems have been lying about Tomas Jefferson's letter they use to claim 'seperation of Church and State. "

They totally lie about the reason Jefferson wrote that letter, and to what he was referring.

The truth about that story is much more interesting than t he lies they tell about.

Tommy, there's absolutely no truth in the crap that you and your MAGAT cronies say about deviant influence in our schools. If that's all you've got to throw at the DumDems I suggest you go pay a visit to the Log Cabin. Go wallow in your lies somewhere else.

It also doesn't say to have drag queens at story time. The Bible, God and prayer are parts of a moral foundation upon which a good person is built. But of course we know democrats hate morality. It's why they are the way they are.

Consul where do you stand on the Vampire in town? Do you give him our sick/old/obese/ugly/handicapped and sleep like a baby. Or do you stand your ground against evil. This will answer the difference between evil and good. I know the answers from most of you without asking and so does Anti. People deal with their demons in many ways, some wish to delete God, good luck with that.
