Recently at my school, a bunch of Christian kids got up on the stage near the end of our lunch period to join hands and pray. Our vice-principal told them that they couldn't do that anymore because it was a disruption, and they were saying that he had violated their constitutional rights and stuff. Finally, they took it to the principal who gave them permission to pray before lunch in the kiva area.
I personally felt that the vice principal had every right to tell them they can't pray on stage during the lunch period. We're allowed to pray in school, but we can't just drop everything to do so. What if they decided to pray during fifth period science? Would they be allowed to leave class and do so? Besides, they don't have to be on stage in front of everyone to pray. I'm a Christian, and those are my feelings about it. What do you think?
