Trump: “We will support bringing back prayer to our schools.”

Do you have an actual proposal in hand that I can read or are you just pulling shit out of your ass as always? I will be happy to wait for something legitimate and not the ramblings of Joy Reid

What kind of proposal do you need, Jethro?

Keep your fake religion that trumpers don't really even believe in, out of public schools.

Simple as that.

Even an ignorant redneck like you shouldn't have difficulty with it.
 

Trump plans to reinstate school prayer. Our readers remember times Christianity came up in class​

Tales of being forced to sing Christmas carols and recite the Lord’s Prayer abound​


Here are a dozen of your stories of going to public school while Jewish, edited for clarity and length:

In the late 1950s and early 1960s, wrote Joel Zakem, elementary schools in Newport, Kentucky, allowed Bible study.


“Once a week, my entire class would walk the three blocks from the school to St. John’s United Church of Christ, where (I suppose) someone from the church would provide lessons taken from the Bible,” he wrote. “Since, however, I was the only person in my class who opted out, I was made to sit alone in the classroom while others were being taught at a church. By law, I was not even allowed to go to the school library, lest I gain some unfair academic advantage over my absent classmates.”

“My high school graduation was held in a local evangelical megachurch and none of the administration seemed to care or understand why that made me so uncomfortable,” they said. “My peers thought I was a devil-worshipper and bullied me for not accepting the words of Christ into my heart and teachers would victim blame me by saying I shouldn’t express beliefs that challenge Jesus if I didn’t want to get picked on.”
