<p>[QUOTE="Conder101, post: 4283290, member: 66"]I don't think so. She was right, mandatory prayer in public schools was wrong. And the ruling to end mandatory prayer did NOT prohibit students from engaging in private, personal prayer in the schools. Too many people are under the false impression that it outlawed ALL prayer which it did not. Later when she sued to have televised and radio sunday morning religious broadcasts banned she was wrong. She claimed it was a misuse of the public airwaves for religious purposes, but the thing is it wasn't on ALL wavelengths, and the public did not have to listen or participate. They had the option of the OFF switch. So the courts rightly found against her there. Personally I think she was right about the motto being on the coins and currency and the courts were wrong. In God We Trust is not secular.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
