Here are some facts:

-Every morning, the House of Reps open with Prayer.
-Every morning, The Senate Chamber opens with prayer.
-Both the Senate and House have Chaplains for to lead prayer, and to help spiritually guide its members.
-The Supreme Court opens with prayer each morning.
-Behind the Supreme Court bench, we see God handing down the 10 commandments, carved in the wall. (along with other religious figures).
-John Adams said, "This government is for only a religious people, and for all others would be inadequate".
-Our Motto is "In God we trust"
-Our pledge includes "one nation under God"
-Our military has several hundreds, if not thousands of chaplains.
-Christmas is a national holiday.


Yet, our kids can't have organized prayer at school.
Religious groups are typically blocked from using government buildings.
Crosses are banned from government land (sometimes).
If I go to school to become a preacher, the government won't pay for it.

What has this world came to? As Ronald Reagan once said, "A nation no longer under God.. is a nation, gone UNDER". Why do we do this?

I don't want a "church of England". or a western Vatican City. But religious freedom is under attack and these attacks must be dealt with.

Opinions?
