re: #677 Charles

Prayer was removed from public schools because it’s a clear violation of the Establishment Clause of the First Amendment of the United States Constitution. And this viewpoint has been upheld by the Supreme Court, over and over again.

So it was removed not because it was oppressive to anyone but because it was deemed in violation of the First Amendment.

Clearly, you haven’t read much by Thomas Jefferson or James Madison if you believe that to be true.

Where would I read that Thomas Jefferson or James Madison were opposed to public prayer in schools or Congress?
