Message | Teacher led prayer should be banned because children should not be influenced by their schools in choosing their faith, or choosing no religion. They should be allowed to make their own choice. |
Date | 18:54:02, October 23, 2005 CET | From | United Centrists | To | Debating the Prayer in schools |
Message | We can agree to Teacher-led prayer being banned in public schools, though should'nt it be allowed in religious schools? |
Date | 09:06:20, October 24, 2005 CET | From | Solentian Global Justice Party | To | Debating the Prayer in schools |
Message | We want to disallow it in religious schools because we believe children shouldn't be influenced by their school in choosing their religion. And in a given religious school, not every student is of that religion. |

Message | even in religious schools, teachers should not be able to influence the students. Students should decide for themselves whether they want to pray or not, and decide whether they want to keep the faith after religious schooling (which their parents obviously forced them in)..... |

Message | What's wrong with praying in religious schools? Many citizens wish to keep their religion and traditions. |
