USAToday: Judge Rules National Day of Prayer Unconstitutional

[greenspandan]

So you believe the followers of Islam should be able tro beat their wives and kids and commit murder?

missing the point to this degree must take tremendous effort. i applaud your commitment.

not that it needs clarification, but the obvious point is that someone who is openly prejudiced against Islam probably should not be invited to speak at an inter-faith prayer event.

I guess he never read the bible.

Where you are not only allowed to murder your children, but shtup them also.

Gosh, it's fun to ignorantly mischaracterize an entire religion.

This is about a proclamation, not a law.

No one is forcing anyone to do anything, or tracking those who do or don't.

No stigmatism is applied by government or society, specifically related to observance or non-observance of the proclamation.

This is no different from hundreds of other days or celebratory events. I don't go out of my way to think about, buy, touch or eat hot dogs on National Hot Dog day. I don't worry about my neighbors or the government or the producers/sellers of hot dogs on that day.

Yes, that was my point exactly.
