You don't believe in god, you don't think prayers are answered, yet you believe time should be wasted in public schools by promoting prayer? What's the point of that?

If children are going to be taught religion, then which religion? I don't think it's fair to choose one religion for them which is why I don't think they should be taught religion in school.

Comments: I put a 2 for 8 and 9. If someone feels the need to pray at a school, it had better not be during class time. At a ball game, if someone is going to pray, it had better not hold up the game...
