School Prayer
* Those children who wish to pray in school are certainly welcome to pray all day long if they chose. I believe silent prayer works just as well as public prayer. They are free to pray as much as they want. However, I do not believe that public school is the proper place for organized public prayer. As a practicing Roman Catholic, I do not pray in public. I chose to pray in private or at my local church. After all, that is where God lives.
