Congress Shall Make Respecting An Establishment
1,626 wordsWhen schools first opened hundreds of years ago prayer was always enforced, and the Bible was the only book most schools had to read. Our first constitutional right states that we have the right to freedom of speech and freedom of religion, and as our right the government can not tell us when it is appropriate to pray.

The American people in communities and local school boards across the country should make these decisions. Do U. S. citizens not live in a democracy? An amendment is not needed...
