Steve,
I think it was Del who posted the Jefferson quotes. I was just putting in a comment about them. On school prayer it was not considered a violation until an atheist filed a lawsuit to stop school prayer. Madeline Hare or is it O'hare? BTW did she ever turn up? She disappeared and it was rumored she died. Her son is a christian. Did she file the lawsuit on behalf of her son so he would not have to participate in compulsory prayers in school? And them he became a christian anyhow. Her worst fears realized. The hypocritical thing about it was she turned her back on her son when he became a christian .

Someone posted a few days ago he wanted America to be a tyranny of the majority. Well, the majority of parents want prayer back in schools because they believe it will help curb the rapid decline of moral standards in schools. As schools have preached secularism in schools (which is the state religion now) the students have responded by having no moral standards. They are smarter than the adults then, because if there is no God then "Eat, drink and be merry for tomorrow we die" and then there is nothing. Teen pregnancy, drug use, teen suicide have all sky rocketed since school prayer has been outlawed and the state religion of secularism took it's place. Now we have shootings and satanism in schools. What next? Thank you uncle sam! And Madeline O'Hare.

Bob
