Reply to "Football, Prayers, and the First Amendment"

Praying out loud in public is not illegal according to the constitution.

 

Most of the time, group prayers are led by someone. That's just the traditional way it's done. It's not forcing anyone to pray. It's not punishing anyone who chooses not to pray.

 

It's simply the community as a whole choosing to be led in a brief prayer. Even when I wasn't a believer, seeing people pray didn't bother me. I usually just stood there and waited for it to end. So I'm still not getting how a simple prayer is so offensive that others must be prevented from engaging in it.
