Dibble with drivel!

@Mahoivlich - You have quite the fast and loose definition of "church," my friend. Giving a prayer before a legislative session does not a church make.

Thank You, Jesus, for Senator Dan Hall! This country needs more leaders like him.

My favorite part of Article 1, Section 16 of MN Constitution is "the right of every man to worship God according to the dictates of his own conscience shall never be infringed."

Sen. Dibble is a clergy bully! In actuality, he is attacking all religions and all spiritual leaders. His spiritual prejudice goes beyond Christianity. He uses section 16 inappropriately. Dibble’s interpretation is so disingenuous that he owes Senator Hall and the Minnesota Senate a public apology.

“By George, I think you've got it!” This is Senator Hall's whole idea here. We must stop men like Senator Dibble from trampling on our constitutional rights. Of course a Muslim senator is free to pray to Allah. And that freedom is also extended to a prayer from a senator who is a follower of Rev Sun Myung Moon. Sen. Dibble and people like him try to intimidate and bully the clergy of all religions by both quoting and interpreting our constitution to eliminate God based upon their preference.

How ironic that the re-reading of the first historical prayer read in Congress is needed to be censured by those who now perceive it as un-Constitutional and bigoted. Perhaps a little more reading of original documents from American history would do us all good.

I don't really have a problem with this prayer as long as those of other faiths are able to share their perspectives as well. I wonder, though, how those supporting Mr. Hall would respond if a practicing Muslim senator read a prayer to Allah.
