How can we support 'christian' prayer in school when our nation is all about diversity? We cannot allow the desires of the majority (christians) to override the rights of the minority (muslims, jews, atheists...)!
Sure our country may have phrases like "In God we trust" and "One Nation under God" but again these are supported by the majority, but not everyone.
One way to look at this issue is from the minority perspective. The issue is not about the majority having the right to pray (they do) just not in a mixed belief crowd, b/c that is discriminating against those that do practice the majority belief (Christianity).

Not completely off topic, Moridin
the 'pome' did mention witches, after all!
For once, I completely agree with you. How does it work? Are there different sets of worship for different faiths, or does everyone gather together to worship, all in one place, but each in their own way? That would be cool!!
