I hate it when my parents talk about this. All they did was disallow teachers to lead students in prayer. And almost all public schools have a moment of silence (which is a minute or 2 long) which is basically designed for people to pray.

I took my students through a 5 minute meditation to alleviate test anxiety. I think that we should be directed as children to sit still--not in a "time-out" way, but in a calming way. My students (who are freshmen at a NYC community college) were not nearly as resistent as I thought they would be. And they performed significantly better on their exams. I told them that taking deep breaths gets oxygen to the brain and slows your adreneline and they were surprised--as I was when I heard it.

To be honest It doesn't seem necessary to have a special time set aside for prayer in school. Personally I think it would be wasted time.
Besides what was removed from school was MANDATORY government sponsored prayer. Anyone can pray in school whenever they want, provided they aren't yelling it aloud during class.

You know he might be right about the prayer in school. If we prayed for knowledge in school instead of seeking it, there would probably be no computers to malfunction.

In Iran, the very same thing happened that you were talking about when the british and the white americans came to work the oil business. Iranians hade to stand by the side of the road and bow in respect. If we went back in those days we would .. most certainly go Che Guevara on someone, bombing shit and just exploding with indignity haha. But see it as hope, look how much has been accomplished by the people before us, and what can be made in the future! hasta la victoria siempre
Im gonna miss your posts, really good stuff I mean it. Now if you really want some rage in those veins of yours :) check this crazy bitch out = "The EU - the New Soviet? Or is it the EU - The future?". This is a post with my first "violent" discussion, it is what we face in Europe man, EU-fascism and this girl personifies this great devil in an intensely evil and devious way, enjoy ;)
