PS. Since arriving back home, i have been wondering. If Special Forces can begin formal meals and ceremonies with a public prayer, and if congress can begin every daily session with a public prayer, if our money can carry the words "In God We Trust", why can't my grandchildren say a prayer in school?

Because school is something that involves a much broader spectrum of the population, both in numbers and diversity, and so someone from that spectrum has stood up to object and the courts have ruled it right. No one has chosen to or dared to object to those other examples and so no court has ruled. It probably would come out the same way if they did, though.
