And I'd say we're doing better. In the history of this country, as "God has been pushed out" we have had far less death in wars. We have freed slaves. We've given women equal rights. We given minorities equal rights. Scientific advances have extended our life expectancy. etc etc etc. If one looks at the most religious countries on earth, they are generally backwards "sh!tholes."

Yea because of a false religion of Islam

I would argue that many of those things that you bring up were done when we were a much, much more religious country than we are now. Regardless, our country is following the natural order of things it appears. We are in between apathy and dependence right now.

This country started crumbling when God was removed from the schools.

Maybe if people want their kids to be religious they should send them to a religious school or, you know, take it upon themselves to instill their religious beliefs in their children rather than get upset that the public school doesn't do it for them.

I haven’t read anything but the headline and the OPs post but I’m assuming his employer told him not to do it and he did it anyway? If that’s the case what grounds does he have to sue?

I’m not sure. Public school, public setting?

But yea, if Twitter told him to stop kneeling and praying in the cafeteria and he did it anyway - that’s on him.

They didn’t ask him not to pray, they just asked him to do it in a way that wasn’t a spectacle at a school event.

“The school said they had no objection to Kennedy or other school employees praying privately at school, including in the locker room before or after games. They did object, however, when Kennedy drew a growing audience for his on-field prayers at the end of each game.”

It’s an interesting case.

Should those people then still be required to pay for your government schools as well?

You assume that you have the correct religion. You could be wrong. You make assumptions regarding the nature of God and Jesus for that matter based upon a book that was written well after the supposed existence of Jesus and has been edited and changed countless times. I am asking why you believe your beliefs are more valid than someone that subscribes to Islam.

I know without a shadow of a doubt that a mentally ill pedophile rapist who enslaved thousands and beheaded thousands isn’t God
