MessageAgainst.

We should allow schools to decide. If a school wishes to conduct a prayer, they may, children to not have to participate however.

From People's Equality Party Of Trigunia
ToDebating the 'No Prayer in School' Act
MessageThis will cause a magnet effect on certain schools. Religious people will flock to one school in the region that gives prayer in school, secular people will flock to the school without it. It's quite unfair because what if there isn't a school for either or nearby? More over, what if there isn't a school which prays for a particular religion? I rather have all schools eqaul, and forbid it all together.

Date04:54:10, August 21, 2005 CET
From Liberty Party
ToDebating the 'No Prayer in School' Act
MessageAgainst. The reason for desiring no prayers in public schools is that the effect is to give the religion the appearance of state-support. If a private school wishes to have prayers, it is its own business and there would be major free speech issues in trying to prevent it.

Since we have no public schools, we have no school prayer problem.

The Liberty Party votes no

From Democratic Socialist Party
ToDebating the 'No Prayer in School' Act
MessageWe agree with the Liberty and Capatalist Parties, it should be be up to the schools to decide, as so to provide choice to parents and students.

From Radical Conservative Party
ToDebating the 'No Prayer in School' Act
MessageI'm against. I don't think that the state should decide on this type of issue.

From Sotsial-Demokraticheskaya Partiya
ToDebating the 'No Prayer in School' Act
MessageWe disagree with The Liberty Party's statement. No prayers in schools is a act of the Separation of Church and State. It shows that religion has no place in government.

From Liberty Party
ToDebating the 'No Prayer in School' Act
MessageWhat are you talking about? WE HAVE ALL PRIVATE SCHOOLS. WE HAVE NO STATE SCHOOLS. SCHOOLS ARE NOT PART OF THE STATE. There is only a separation of church and state issue if the schools are part of the state. Since all our schools are part of the private sector, they can do what they like. I'm not sure how this can be explained more simply.
