12. The real question

Is why the hell they even need an officially sanctioned prayer to begin a meeting with in the first place?

Want god's guidance? Why not just go and get together with other believers outside before the proceedings even begin. You can have any type of prayer you want, to whatever god you want, and it affects nobody but you.

INSTEAD we have to use the PUBLIC'S time to be seen in public being pious (do I need to quote what Yeshua thought of that?) instead of just getting down to business.

Its a divisive ritual that really does not need to be there in the first place and if the SCotUS were the least bit rational they would just ban it altogether.
