I'd like for someone to explain the logic of this debate with me. It basically says that if we move to an Islamic country, like Iran, that we shouldn't expect them to quit holding public prayers. So why should it be any different in the U.S., which is a "Christian" country?

But in the U.S., I thought we have the First Amendment which says that the government can not make laws that respect the establishment of religion or prohibit the exercise thereof. We also have established the separation of church and state.

So am I to believe that, since this country is allegedly founded on Christian principles, that we should adopt the same mentality and practices of countries like Iran?

(Some even go so far as to resort to a "love it or leave it" mentality.)

Am I not getting something here? Or maybe I am, and I just really don't like the sounds of it.

When actually he does,
No one not even a believer like me or others will ever understand God. but Its faith that binds us together.
When Gods voice is heard everyday through the good at heart.
through those who say to just hold on a little bit longer in times of crisis and adversity, and through those who Love and forgive.

What do you hope to achieve by praying. A big win on lotto, the next horse race, discover gold, that religious leaders stop sexually abusing children, that you’ll be forgiven for being bad, or perhaps you’re so good that you’re praying for others to be forgiven.

When you go to church and pray, or kneel by your bed, or wherever, what is that you really want, that some imaginary fantasy entity will give you?

This girl I work with said that the only thing she doesn't like about public schools is that they took the lords prayer out. I responded with telling her that in the muti-cultural country that we live in, it wasn't fair to those who do not beleive in the Christian God and that making a few kids stand in the hall way for a few min is a good way to get kids bullied even more then what kids are. She then responded with telling me that kids who don't beleive in "the one and only god" should go to other schools that are ment for their religion. She didn't beleive me when I told her that segregating people would cause more racism and discrimination then what is already out there. I for one am glad that the lord prayer is no longer said in public schools (atleast where I live), I come from a family who does not beleive in the christian god. School is not a place for religion (unless it is that type of school). What are your thought?

Does that mean the bible was wrong when it said that God creates? That it would be more correct if it says God transforms?

Basically I'm looking for something along the lines of missionary work. I would like to know which religions are the most likely to share their message with me one day. After all, I live in a land that was founded on the principle of religious freedom, so if any religion wants to spread its message this would be a good place to do it.

Please be specific, too. For example, "Christianity" would be too broad of an answer, considering it is divided into numerous sects and denominations. Thanks!
