[QUOTE]Originally posted by Omega: [QB] "You already HAVE the right to pray in school. You always HAVE. Silently." I know I can. Actually, I can't even remember the last time I prayed out loud. I'm just arguing the point for other religions. Isn't it Islam where you have to bow towards Mecca five times a day? (Never could find out whether those are specified times or not. Anyone care to enlighten me?) "Ever have to stop a class you've conducted in order to let someone leave the room and then come back?" Who says you have to stop class? Why not just have the student inform the teacher if he or she needs to leave during class? That way, everyone who needs to know what's going on will. Then they can just stand up and walk out quietly. A student won't miss much during a five minute absence, and they can always find out what they missed after class. "What you DON'T have the right to do is pray... in the form of an organization" I hope you don't mean outside the class. Outside the class, you can do whatever you want, group or otherwise. During class, you can't talk, or hold up signs, or what have you, because it disrupts class as long as you do. That's why I suggest that people whose religions require them to do things that may disrupt the class be allowed to leave temporarily. "4.) The rewriting of the Pledge of Allegiance to include "under God" 5.) The recoinage of our money with the slogan "in God we trust."" More like the rewriting of the pledge to EXCLUDE "under God", as has been done before. I believe it was there to begin with. That recoinage happened in 1865, in case anyone's interested. First, you seem to think that this government has to officially have nothing to do with God, in any form. That it can't even recognize His existance. I've got news for you: this country was founded on the religious principles found in the Bible. A book you should read: The Rewriting of American History, by Catherine Millard. You might learn something. [/QB][/QUOTE]
