I really worry about some of you and your pragmatic ethics. Atheists would not want anyone to pray for their child, for they believe that there isn't a diety to pray to. And your argument that if I do not like to hear prayer at ballgames, then simply "don't go", is just plain wrong. It is a public venue, being hosted by a public school, which is held accountable by the federal and state government, which clearly say that there should/and will be a separation of religion and state/federal funded activities.
If you guys want a country where you have your own national religion, then take the next flight to London. Until then, I'm not responding until some of you take out your little hippified U.S. History textbooks and actually read them. And for GreenMan, let's see you quote ELA and talk to him like that.
