"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion or prohibiting the free exercise thereof"

I don't see anything in there about prohibiting schools or football coaches from praying... it could be me though.

[Nickdiaublow]

Rob Boston, Matt Dilahunty, and David Silverman should team up.

[AABREU80]

@Nickdiaublow Team up for what buddy?. Those guys are not even relevant today. SHHHHHH! Go to sleep brother.

[Ladiesman1447]

Praying to win a football game... it should be banned just on the purpose of self-centeredness and stupidity.

[zzyzx0788]

@Ladiesman1447 Should be considered cheating. Divine intervention? Sounds like grounds for disqualification to me

[berner]

Well I guess we might as well toss out the establishment clause too while we're at it.

[slr1238]

rob boston should keep his big nose out of other peoples business.boston is a gestapo nazi and a prick.

The "Judeo/Christian" values this country was "founded upon" were at best, perversions of Christianity. I don't think Jesus would support Manifest Destiny and I doubt the Native Americans saw us as Liberators. A perverted form of Christianity to justify slaughtering millions, ethnic/cultural genocide so we could have our "Great Nation" that has been sold now to China. "Sorry, Indians; Jesus doesn't like you as much as us." USA political zealots worship profit, not any God before it.

"Robs group is on a 'Search and Destroy' mission for all things religious..." GOOD!!!

[nickstoli]

Gee, the moderator was so fair and balanced.

[kathy160]

rob boston never invited to fox news again. i wonder why ? fox news is unfair and unbalanced im surprised rush limbaugh isnt on fox. wow rob boston should be more famous

[brpowerful]

Rob boston is NOT on a search and destroy mission for all things religious.

I AM!

[crabbit87]

FYI the prayers were universal. Not specifically christian. So the final comment was a bit moot.

[Vespasian76]

If Fox & Friends really want to do religion right,, they should require all students to recite the Nicene Creed every morning and before football games. George Washington was an Anglican/Episcoalian.

If they they are really American, they would be supporting AU and keeping state sponsored prayer out of the schools.

[Skiingsteve]

0:56 Fox News is totally Fair and Balanced......

[barnettb901]

i cant fucking stand this pro christian network. they are fucktards

[cchris000043]

Search and destroy mission for all things religious? Im in.

[94Cioppa]

@cchris000043 thatta boy

[julianbell90]

rob boston is one of my favorite white people, next to chuck norris

[TheGreatRL]

I thought the news commentator was supposed to be neutral. Oh wait, its FOX news. Nevermind.

[ThePublicIsInsane]

Lol when ever a good point is made against the side the biased fox news team is for they frantically say "that's all the time we have" the guy is right it's not fair for one-sided prayer(Christian based) to be fair get a religious leader from every religion to open with a specific prayer of their faith to be fair but that's a lot of trouble and waste of time so fairness would be keep it neutral.

[AnonymousComrade]

team prayer? i thought this was a moral orel episode for a second

[Paralyt1c]

I get a headache every time I watch fox news.

[rmcdaniel423]

The religious guy talks about how the atheists are just being irrationally hostile to all things religious. What if the tables were turned? What if school groups (like teams or clubs or classes or whatever) were holding little vigils that denounced all religions as part of regular ceremonial traditions at games and events? And school authorities joined in? I'm absolutely certain that some christian group would be rallying against the practice.

[amorphousguy]

Rob is amazing.

[jmlew]

I'm really glad there are guys like Rob Boston out there who aren't buying into all of this religious nonsense and Christian favoritism.

[gombis666]

This "anti-church-and-state" guy is merely anti-christian. He cow-tows to any crazy muslim foot bathes, burkahs, or clitorectomy practices in public schools. He should be more consistent in his push for separation of church and state.

[rmcdaniel423]

@gombis666 Really? Please show me the source where Rob Boston "cow-tows to crazy muslim . . . clitorectomy practices in public schools". I'll be honest. That seems unlikely to me.

[gombis666]

@rmcdaniel423 - There's a video on here where he's clearly standing up for the practice of foot bathing in public areas. His problem is his biased hatred of Christianity more than his fighting for the separation of church and state (an issue I 100% support).

[rmcdaniel423]

@gombis666 1) WHICH video?

2) Does he simply acknowledge the right to clean one's feet in a public bathroom, or does he specifically propose that public facilities be forced to install special foot washing stations in order to accommodate Muslims?

3) I will ask more pointedly: Show the source where he "cow-tows to crazy muslim...clitorectomy practices in public schools". Or were you just making an outrageously slanderous accusation for shock value?

[gombis666]

@rmcdaniel423 - Well, the practice female genital mutilation is something that runs rampant within several sects of Islam. It's still a MAJOR problem so much so that the World Health Organization keeps tabs on it and has organized against it. I know that the subject is shocking for you as someone who thinks all muslims are moderate, peaceful farmers....but it's a know problem within Islam. In terms of the other video, do your own research. I can't spoon feed you everything.

[rmcdaniel423]

@gombis666 I know mutilation is a problem elsewhere in the world. I guess I assumed you were talking about public schools here in the U.S.

I most certainly do NOT think all muslims are "moderate peaceful farmers". I have no idea what gave you that impression.

One thing (the specific video you referenced) is not "everything". It's poor form to cite evidence you can't provide. Answering simple questions is not "spoon feeding". Your condescending tone is unwarranted.

[gombis666]

@rmcdaniel423 - It's more my opinion of Mr Boston, than a commentary on Islam. I have seen him in various clips speaking of the value of the separation of church/state - a subject I take seriously. I have seen him be very lenient to Islam (which poses more of a threat when integrated with "state" ). Just my take on his stance as a whole. It would require you to look at him in several videos for you to understand my point. Something that is easy to look up in youtube ===>>> look to your right.

[rmcdaniel423]

@gombis666 You originally replied by saying "There's a video on here . . ." which gave me the impression of a particular clip you were aware of. I don't know anything about the guy. Having to see a subtle trend amongst several videos to understand your point explains why you couldn't give me the answer I was looking for. Fair enough.

And I totally agree that integrating Islam with "state" would be far more threatening than a bunch of christian kids saying a prayer before a game.

[rmcdaniel423]

@gombis666 It just seemed surprising and shocking that this guy, who is shown here rallying for separation of church and state, would "cow-tow to crazy muslim clitorectomy practices in school".

[gombis666]

@rmcdaniel423 - I think Mr Boston is WAY more lenient when it comes to Muslims (who in my view, are more extreme in religion than Christians). In several videos, he has given them a pass which to me points to more of a hatred of Christianity rather than a person truly concerned about separation of church/state. I think it would be far worse in this country of Islam had the same foothold in politics as christianity does and Mr Boston should be more concerned about that.

[LOLUMADCAUSUBAD]

@gombis666 YOU GET THAT STRAWMAN! SHOW HIM WHAT YOU THINK OF HIM! In the mean time, the rest of us will debate correctly.

[gombis666]

@LOLUMADCAUSUBAD - Yea, I'd love to see some debate with facts...sadly, I've seen none of that. Just hateful people with a vendetta against Christianity (when it should be against all religion). Mr Boston seems to hate Christianity yet tolerates the crazed, bronze age views of muslims. I am against them both and he should be as well.

[neddomac]

haha rob boston so calm and collected fucking owns them at the end

[ab330]

Journalism is dead... fox killed it.

[1993wethebest]

rob boston is a fuckin loser

[xn117]

@1993wethebest suck it cunt - you know you are busted

[TheKasch]

really love how the Fox guy starts by saying "fair and balanced debate" and abandoned that idea like 3 seconds later with sarcastic comments.

[Daguigoz]

Robs last argument owned!!!! and fox ended there........

[JoshieBoy81]

The anchor is a piece of shit!

[bboyloco3]

religion is bullshit end of story.

[bobfredpo]

@bboyloco3 this made me lol. but in a... i totally agree way

[heeberman]

ROB BOSTON YEAH!!!!

[usuckbad2]

The only thing Rob boston said that was wrong was parents have the right of the childrens religious lives. That should not be allowed they should be brought up free thinkers expressing none of their veiws..

[heeberman]

@usuckbad2 AGREED!!

[Tait011]

my god what a bias 'debate'.

[luxfero]

rob boston is awesome.

[RebelGuy95]

Well, I don't really care about him lookin at the floor while they pray, as long as it was all student initiated. Tax payer dollars keep the lights on and the teachers pay checks coming in, hence, no faculty members can use this government / taxpayer funded institution as a pulpit.

[lucasdaudt22]

Bob is a fucking beast!

[lucasdaudt22]

XDDD I think bob fits him best. bob sounds cool XD

[MyJimminyCricket]

Hell yeah go Bob!

[ThieleM]

Interesting that Rob parts his hair on the right while the other guy parts his hair on the left......

[nakattack84]

Wow, thisee Fox guys are morons. Good job not stooping to their level Rob.

[MrCurdo]

@nakattack84 .....they prayed therefore theyre morons? maybe you should step up a level?

[nakattack84]

The Fox guys were praying???

[lucasdaudt22]

if you are religious atheists are automatically one step above :D

[Danz2003]

@lucasdaudt22 Thats not true at all. Usually if your athiest your one step ahead in name calling and being rude but thats about it.

[heeberman]

@Danz2003 Why do you think atheists are name calling and rude. Is it really necessary to have a god watching over you to be a good, moral person? I'm an atheist and I'm rather polite.

[Danz2003]

@heeberman I dont mean all of them are just some i have met and seen on youtube, like this guy for example. Whats wrong with having someone looking down on you and to be a good moral person? it doesnt sound bad to me,i think the world would be way better if people were more moral and had a better sense of purpose.But yea its good you are polite i just said some athiests can be rather hostile.

[JonnyPxN]

@MrCurdo no, uh , the fox reporter was being rude etc... not really "fair and balanced"

[HaraldNordgren]

@JonnyPxN Yeah. But what did you expect? It's Fox News...

[Danz2003]

@nakattack84 your only saying that because you disagreed with them. that doesnt mean they are morons!

[comingatchu]

The U.S. Supreme Court affirmed the ban. The coach cannot participate.

[baystategal]

Rob Boston is attempting to destroy all things religious? Lie. The fight is to destroy the institutional imposition of personal religious practices.

[baystategal]

Prayer made these students go on to productive lives? So, if they didn't pray, they wouldn't have. Is prayer that magical? Is it because it is in Middle English and stated by rote with no attention to content? What a snide and ridiculous comment by the host.

[andy08s]

sadlly there are laws in usa that establish religion, and look how AFD person first attacked his opponent, but other guy didn't and AFD guy talks that religion is who we are as american, what if somebody whants be areligius

[rddaos]

ADF, not AFD

[sagekat3]

GO ROB!

[zoxovox]

Rob rules!

[cjezach]

Thank you for posting this news. I agree with AU's Rob Boston.
