Say to him: Hey, dipshit, what SCOTUS has held prohibits state officials/employees from mandating or directing prayer.

How many times will these apparently illiterate goat herders spout that BS?

1. If you want your kid to be forced to pray in school send them to a church sponsored school.
I went to Catholic grade school, high school and college. The supreme court didn't have any effect on our praying before class.

Of course I am a recovering Catholic now/

4. Or better yet do not force feed religion to those you love, for their sake and religions

3. Like the old saying goes...
As long as there are pop quizzes, there will ALWAYS be prayer in schools!

5. I remember watching hearings like this
back in the seventies - the early seventies - and this southern Senator bullshit is EXACTLY the same as it was back then.

Maybe it's worse, since things have changed. Plus, these pricks aren't nearly as smooth as the old guys were. They're just crude fucks.

But, man, are these guys OFFENDED by this woman daring to sit there, calmly handling them, and showing them up for the assholes that they truly are!

How DARE she?
