Talk:Classroom prayer (view source)
Revision as of 20:11, September 8, 2016

You guys dont actually think that the country should sponsor enforced school prayer, right? In any context forcing classroom prayer isn't a good idea, because, obviously, religious minorities exist and they deserve the right not to pray to a god/gods they don't believe exist. And also on the topic of teachers leading school prayer, I am obviously against that as well for the reasons I already mentioned. The only way in which I would support class prayer is in the context of a student's right to pray to themselves in a session not lead by any staff.

:So it is the non-believing, atheistic, liberal minority who has to force his religious beliefs on the rest of the class, is that what your saying? Ironic, isn't it. [[User:Karajou|Karajou]] ([[User talk:Karajou|talk]]) 20:40, 7 September 2016 (EDT)

::Personally I'm an atheist and I know you guys want to kill us all but not having a state-sanctioned classroom prayer isn't forcing our evil atheist communist nazist agenda on the rest of his class. Not having a classroom prayer isn't bigotry against Christians, it is simply equality for people of all religion. Secularism and militant atheism are two different things; a militant atheist teacher would try to force his atheism on his class, while one who believes in secularism (the USA is a secular state by the way) would just not have any prayer at all. I'm okay with class prayers in inherently religion-based schools though, but in terms of the average secular public school, I wouldn't.
