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).

Thats right! Good post!
What was that line from the simpsons:
Organized religion has no place in a public school just like facts have no place in organized religion!
