Why on Earth have we spent so much time, energy and thought on whether we can pray in public schools?
I can remember praying I would pass a test; praying that I would make the hockey team; praying that the boy I liked would ask me to go to the movies.
So I say: Pray all you want to in school or anyplace else. Pray to any God that you think will help you out. And don't pray if you don't want to.
No law can make one pray or keep one from praying.
Now, will lawmakers please turn time, energy and minds to doing what they can to make life on this Earth good? I pray they will.
