1:The United States was not founded on the bible or Christianity."Christianity neither is, nor ever was, a part of common law"-Thomas Jefferson. 2:Kids are allowed to pray at school but the the school cannot require it. 3:America is a secular nation so it can't promote any religion over another. -

My understanding of democracy is a majority rule with this being said I'm sure if it were put to a vote as it should be the conversation of prayer being taken out of school would not be a conversation and you would see a drop in school violence thus achieving even what non believers want. How then can we say we are a democracy considering anything to do with Christ is done away with no vote or no discussion needed just gone. Yet every immoral thing out there will be added likewise no vote or discussion. Seems like a devil in the woodpile to me if you know what I mean.REPORT COMMENTS

The reason why I am writing this letter is because we as Americans use to be one nation under God. What are we now? You took prayer out of the schools and its time to put it back into the schools and in other places. We shall not be ashamed of God. The world has took away God in our schools and its time for you people to help us bring God back into our schools. How do you think God feel. This world will never become right again until we bring God back. But we as Americans need your help. Don't just look at it. Help us make it happen. God bless youREPORT COMMENTS

It was wrong to take God out of everything when He is everything. Yet still we can have on any form of money "IN GOD WE TRUST". Let us give ourselves the chance to make it completely right and watch how things begin to change.REPORT COMMENTS

Jesus Christ is the most influential person in world history so how can he be left out of our schools. Every day our world revolves around Jesus Christ whether we know it or ignore it. Please pray for those that choose to ignore it!REPORT COMMENTS

I am a believer in God, and Jesus Christ. I believe that every student should have the option of praying with their peers. We have freedom of religion, freedom of speech, and also have freedom of choice. It is wrong to deny our children the right to pray out loud in school, from FEAR of offending someone. Don't we teach our children to stand up for what they believe in? To fight for what's right? How can we teach that, yet tell them that they cannot pray verbally in a school setting? That is hypocritical, and it's wrong. If a child comes from a family that doesn't have the same beliefs, then they don't have to pray with the ones that do believe. It's a CHOICE. We cannot make them feel as if their religion or praying is wrong, and by denying them that right to pray out loud, we are going against the very thing we teach them. Which is to stand up for what you believe in, and do it with pride. I stand behind prayer in school. Maybe with it back in schools, and having the option of joining a after school group that pertains to their religion, they would be doing something positive instead of some of them being led to do things that get them in trouble. Today people are changing everything. Beliefs and traditions that we've had for many years are being stopped because of the opinions of a select group. If they can have their way, and get to stand up for what they believe in, our children should have that right as well.REPORT COMMENTS

Christianity starts when were born. Our young ones need to continue learning at school all about FAITH, HOPE, & LOVE to grow up embracing, respecting, our homeland with dignity! Bullying is another example of no Faith/Chrisitanity in schools! We need to bring christianity back!REPORT COMMENTS

We need to know the truth!! It's supposed to be one nation under God! This is the country that was founded on the Bible! I'm a senior now at Lakeland high school and the morals and what we are taught is absurd. Christianity should be back in schools not just learning about cults in our school, we need Jesus!!! Not Muhammad or BuddhaREPORT COMMENTS

I think every school should acknowledge God first thing in the morning because thats who wakes us up every morning and have us in our right mind. If the schools have prayer the enemy couldnt throw his fiery darts at them cause their is power in the name of Jesus!!!!!!REPORT COMMENTS

Jesus is a polite God. He will not come into our lives uninvited. I'm very tired of sitting back allowing other religions and organizations to openly mock and insult my Christianity over and over again. What about my freedom of speech? What about my rights as an American citizen to practice religion how I see fit? What about my right as a parent to be the one who educates my child on their morals and beliefs. How do I explain to my children that they aren't allowed to pray to God when they are in school several hours a day? How do I explain to them that we need to be tolerant and kind about other people's religions but they do not have to return the favor? How do I explain to them that Freedom of Speech will only be upheld for the loud and aggressive person who wants to spout their minority views on things, no matter how offensive and vulgar they are to Christians? That if you are sweet and kind and just want to say a little prayer to your God, you will be denied that and made to feel less than for even complaining about it? Not only do we need to welcome God back into our schools with open arms, we need to deeply repent for sitting back quietly while our Lord and Savior is ignored, marginalized and mocked. I'm not going to take this anymore and I pray to God that no one else who calls themselves a Christian does either. Lord, I Bless your Holy Name now and forever and I personally beg your forgiveness. We have not forgotten you and we will not stop fighting for what is right. By your grace please give us the faith and wisdom to know how to turn everyone's hearts and heads towards you very quickly. For God did not give us a spirit of timidity, but a spirit of power, of love and of self-discipline. (2 Timothy 1:7)REPORT COMMENTS
