Bill: Prayer in Schools
Details
Submitted by[?]: Dorvish Popular Front
Status[?]: passed
Votes: This is an ordinary bill. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: March 2058
Description[?]:
| We support making prayer in schools the decision of the school. Of course the schools will be advertised as such, therefore parents can make the decision. If religous people wish their child to be in a religous environment why should the government tell them they cant? Furthermore, the prayer sessions will be optional, in the same way schools have other extra-curricular programs. This enforced athiesm is becoming a religion of its own! |
Proposals
Article 1
Proposal[?] to change The government's policy with respect to prayer in schools.
Old value:: Teacher-led prayers in schools are forbidden.
Current: Teacher-led prayers in schools are forbidden, except in religious schools.
Proposed: The government leaves this decision up to the schools themselves.

| Message | I agree with this bill; but this bill also makes private schools necessary since that way parents will be able to choose whether to send their kids to religious institutions. |
