[my opinion on]
Government should be separate from religion.
Schools, a government institution, should not lead in a religious prayer.
Government should not repress religious beliefs.
DISASSOCIATION SHOULD NOT LEAD TO REPRESSION. (Most people, including school officials, government official, etc. still don?t grasp this concept.)
Government should not tell a person when they can or can't pray. If the students want to pray in school let them.
Children are getting away with much more now, not because of the absence of prayer in school, but because parents and teachers cannot discipline children without getting sued, or thrown in jail.
