This is why the rest of the world hates us.

I think no prayer should be offered in the Senate and other public offices at all. Religion should be a private matter. But if they do then it's only right if they are fair and they give room for other religions as well and show respect to them as they expect respect for their own religion. If they are not prepered to show respect to others then they should ban public prayers like this altogether. But this bully mentality is typical for US Christianity.

The son of these lowlifes used to frequent a forum I was part of years ago. He showed up one day bragging about his parents.

Not the kind of thing you want to bring to a forum full of Dinosaur enthusiasts. Needless to say, he was ripped apart.

I'm a devout Christian but I believe what happened there was wrong. Not all Christians are like that. God commands us to love each other and by doing that we are showing His love to them. This video just shows the hate that some Christians have towards other religions. If we are criticizing other religions, is that showing God's love? No. I support prayer of all faiths because we all have the right to pray as we wish, and that includes everyone. God gave us a choice, and we must respect that.

I can't believe how people in the background are so rude, disrespectful and closed-minded they clearly are. This world is a beautiful place filled with knowledge from all people, religions, and places. Since Sanskrit is the oldest written language, as far as religion being written down, and as far as organized religion is concerned, it would be Hinduism. Vedic Hinduism and Zoroastrianism are considered the oldest organized religions...and should be respected as such just like any other religion.

@bigword100 - You sound like one of those tacky religious tracts you find littering the local Walmart. You're brainwashed into believing one out of 10,000 religions is the real and only one. Wake up and smell the coffee. Your religion is not the first and certainly not the last. None of them are right, only diversions conceived by men, to control and manipulate other men. Research ancient Greek, Roman and Egyptian mythology and ALL religions. Not just Christianity.
