AMEN!! In several of the articles it was mentioned that silent prayer would be acceptable. One of the programs I was watching last night said that the presidents amendment was for oral prayer, not silent. The discussion that followed was very interesting. It stated that this government was formed by Christian principles. The statement of separation between Church and State was to prevent the State from interfering with these principles. That schools should be allowed to have an oral prayer. Not one selected by the government , but by the people. Its time that this nation makes a Christian stand. AMEN!!
