The Supreme Court has ruled many times in the spirit of "separation of church and state".

"Though not explicitly stated in the First Amendment, the clause is often interpreted to mean that the Constitution requires the separation of church and state." (Free Speech Center)

So, why in 1954 was Eisenhower allowed to add "under God" to the pledge of allegiance? Why were schools allowed to compel students to recite this IN SCHOOL, a public institution children are made, by law, to attend.

Many times, I've heard pastors lament that the world would be so much better if we just brought prayers back to the school. My response?

Whose prayer should it be? From what I read, there are 5 major religions in the US and I assume many more.
Why involve school? Kids are free to pray at home, free to attend the community worship center of their choice.
