I concede that you found examples of public prayer in acts, but then it just shows another example of Bible contradictions.

5And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.

6But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly.

6 seems pretty clear, and needs no interpretation.

In any event, why should you have the right to impose your prayers on others in public, when they don't want to hear them? Would you allow me to do 2 minutes on evolution before every football game?
