An interesting thought crossed my mind last nite. What if Madalyn Murray O'Hair had NOT brought her lawsuit against organized school prayer several decades ago....or what if she had LOST her case.....what would organized school prayer look like in our schools today? Furthermore, religionists claim that the lack of organized school prayer has brought on the plethora of troubles in our Public School system...would those troubles be non-existant?
Things to think about:
1. With the rise in other religions represented (Muslim, Hindu, Buddhist, Pagan, etc.) which prayers would be used?
2. What would be the consequences for teachers who did not want to lead prayers against their own religion (Jehovah's Witnesses come to mind)?
3. What positive things would we see in schools because of organized school prayer?
4. What would be the consequences for students who did not want to lead prayers against their own religion?
5. Would there be a religious test for hiring teachers?
6. Would schools become segregated or religious magnet schools?
Points to ponder.
