to demand prayer in public schools? Let's see, Mondays can be Islam and we pray to Allah. On Tuesday, we can pray to Adonai, on Wednesday we pray to the wiccan God, on Thursday to all Native American gods, and I suppose the Christians will want a day of their own too so we'll give them Fridays!

If it happens, I want morning goat sacrifices to Satan, and an hour to pray to FSM, and anything anyone makes up.

In all those religions what is the main idea or why do we pray. I'm not talking from a the stand point of the people in those religions but rather there values. If we know what vaules or universal idea's these share then we can understand what and how we want teach or children. And then it's just a matter of hiring upstanding teachers.

Can they... yes
Will they.... no
Most people are to blind to see that honestly everyone is looking for the same thing... a crutch, some thing to believe in, a reason to keep living.
The ones who are more willing to intermingle would be athiasts of Wiccans...
Wiccans especially since their motto (creed) is "an harm none do as ye will"
Live and let live... be happy... dont hurt anyone intentionally...
I'm not so religious so i guess youcan call me more toward agnostic... I just dont give a damn

Contrary to popular belief, there is still prayer in school. You can pray to your hearts content to whatever god or goddess you want and read your holy book all you want. It just can't be led or required by the school is all. And do you know how many religions you left out? Plus Wicca has MANY different traditions and gods and goddesses, you can't include them all in one day.

How about you keep that in private schools? There is supposed to be no religion in public school...although there is...rather stupid if you ask me.
Look pray all you want...but no time should be set aside where the whole school has to do something as a whole like that..that's pushing it.

I think religion should be kept out of public schools. Only a code of morals and ethics should be used. That means we shouldn't do Easter or Christmas. It seems that most schools are pro-christian. I don't ever hear about Ramadan break or Hanukkah break in school.

I think that the children should be allow to pray silently to themselves to whatever God or Goddes it is they profess to. Truly, schools can't stop them from doing so even now! They can pray whenever they want.

the idea seems to be nice but then the muslims would brand the other days as non believer days and therefore unholy and for this they would prove that they have some verse for it in quran .........and then the jews would beat the **** out of them ..........and then the christians woudl say that they are taking over the other days for which there would be a conflict .........and then we all would come to know that religion actually preaches peace......................

And we'd fit the education in where?? What's the POINT of combining education and religion when there's separate places for religion already? Seems like a huge waste of our children's valuable time.

This is why kids don't prey in school. Soon you would have little clubs of kids who only wanted to prey to certain gods. Kids are mean you can't open them up to other opportunities to make fun of each other.
