Ah I see it all began with prayer being taken out of schools, that horror of horrors. Considering your supposedly free country was founded by deists (not Christians) who specifically wrote the constitution to guarantee that government should be totally separate from religion it seems detestable that there ever WAS prayer in schools. Public schools are run largely by and financed fully by the state, hence having prayer in schools is unconstitutional. The founding fathers of the United States wrote as they did to provide people not only with freedom of religion but freedom FROM religion, so forcing it upon children is hardly coherent with their views. Claiming, as I'm sure you do, that America is a built on Christianity is laughable.

Prayer in schools is an illegal affront on freedom from religion and should be lampooned by all rational Americans (and non-Americans for that matter). It represents indoctrination of children by showing them, in an environment they are forced to be part of, "Christianity is the truth." By all means let parents indoctrinate their children at home and in church, we have no moral pedastel to stand on and say what people should and shouldn't teach their children; however there is no way that prayer in schools is compatible with modern morality or the United States constitution.

"I do not find in orthodox Christianity one redeeming feature."

I doubt you'll recognize this quote, but you should recognize the author. His name is Thomas Jefferson. You know, wrote the Declaration of Independence and was the 3rd president.

I further note that the socialist countries of Europe, particularly the Nordics, have higher life expectancies, higher quality of life indices and a great deal more wage equality than the pure capitalist US. Maybe a healthy dose of socialism is exactly what you need.

I applaud your attempt to wake the sheeple from their stupor; however your justifications are flawed.
