O yes only problem with this whole ideal is the fact that not everyone sees the same god. Yea we can all say we believe in god but we still go to seperate churches. But its a null point the real problem here isn't a loss of relationship with god, history has proven that, what does matter and what we do know is humanity needs to take more consideration for how he worships the god right here and not the god above him. Yea we like to wave and point to the sky and softly mention that gods in all of us. But the reality and what we have missed so much is that god IS IN ALL OF US. It doesn't take a church to worship god,reach out to a kid that needs some conversation, talk to the teens about the power of sex and the choose they make, just fing talk to people about something you both can agree on or debate, and diffenently not argue. But the fact of the matter is that it all comes down to an overwelming deteration in the family unit, yep and thanks to the different faiths in this world what did we expect?. It was never meet to be splint into so many parts. And all this does is avoid the real issues in how we don't have a clue on how to relate to each other. Yea, lets fight for more god in school, then all we do is alienate those who don't what him in there, does that make them less then the rest of us? Does saying your religion is more right, or more holy then mine, make you prideful? With so many different denomanations I say its a null point. We need to see that it isn't him up there we should be afraid of its the god in all of us thats pissed and doesn't know what to do anymore. Also were to small too understand him from down here anyways when he is up there, but we sure as heck can understand our brothers and our sisters. And the facts are god as we know it died along time ago, yea I said it, science killed him good. I know we can fight and debate about that but the world as we used it, the world as we see it, the world as we know it has CHANGED! Ignorance has had light cast opun it and no more can we believe plugues are not virus, that earthqukes are not the plates moving under the crust, that the sun is not a ball of burning gas, we can no longer believe that god just whats us to worship him, he wants us as he always had to see all our brothers and sisters and not hate them but learn to live with them. We live in a new world were we help ourselves without given nothing more then a stern disappointed look to others around us or even in our own families, times have change we no longer pray to god that our car will start, nor do we pray that my space or mtv well still be on the air. We are in control, we are the hands of god, and until we requize this and stop being idle well stop being the devils playground. Go ahead try and tell my generation about god, try to tell them there is only one faith, and loss them whole. This is smaller then god, this is simply a matter of human purpose that we lost along time ago, we are meet to be our brothers friends, its not our place to control him, nor is it our place to push our own ideals on him, until we can see an all encompassing grand truth all your doing is shoveling faith at a world that needs truth. And all you guys can't see that as long as you talk with that bible in your hand its just FAITH! YOUR FAITH! We need people that can talk below god, that can talk without pushing faith, people that can talk strait and true about the fact that there isn't good and bad, just creation and destrotion. The fact is buddy and all were suffering for is the fact that we just what to see the world as right or wrong, well were all wrong because were slowly destroying it all, by not growing together, by not being friends. Yea its that simple and that disney, thats what makes it so sad in the frist place. Of course I never did understand why I had to go to church and sit facing a cross when all I want'd to do was know my brothers, if that sends me to hell then fine atleast I'll know I loved those around me and not a god I couldn't see with a faith I almost don't believe..... besides you ever try to talk to your brothers outside of church? Yea what a world we live in.... not trying to force my ideals on you just trying to talk about what I know to be true because you bible-pushers have been around since rome and look around you.... we need something different and something new, beyond or just simplier then religion because humanities been playing these games for a long, long time.....

If God is all-powerful, then He cannot be kicked out of the schools... unless it is His will. And if he can be kicked out of the schools (notice now the lower-case "he"), then he isn't powerful enough for us to worship. As long as there are algebra classes, science experiments, sadistic gym teachers, bullies, four-hour homework loads and cafeteria food left over from the 1970s, there will be prayer in public schools. What there must never be is teacher-led prayer. That is unconstitutional and un-American.
