by religious friends and family members. It pisses me off every time. No one took "God" out of schools. If a child wants to pray silently before a test, or a meal, or whatever, they can, as long as they aren't interrupting others or doing it while their teacher is teaching. Also, if a child wants to bring a Bible to read before class or during quiet time I'm sure that would be allowed too. Saying God has been taken out of the schools is bullshit.

What about the shootings that have occurred in churches, and at the Amish school in 2006? I'm sure God and prayer was allowed there.
