You keep comparison an organization and an organized meeting with indivduals; they are not the same.




What difference does it make. It is all based on separation of church and state. Mind telling me how Muslims being allowed to walk out of class to pray every single day and given a classroom to do so is separation of church and state?

Ok. let's compare apples to apples, then.

Well one is required practice of an individual, the other is a non-required meeting of an organization.

It's still not apples to apples. When it became a group of 90 students, it could be considered school sponsored. They weren't just participating in required religious practice, they were hold a group organized religious meeting.

And the lawsuit was eventually dropped. Christian teen in Colorado drops school prayer lawsuitAnd here is the pertinent difference you keep ignoring:
quote:

Supreme Court rulings over the years have generally barred public school sponsored prayer as an “establishment of religion” prohibited by the First Amendment, though not voluntary religious activities by students.
When it became a large event, then it became more of a school sponsored event. Although, I would have liked to see a ruling.

Either way, it's not the same as students praying as part of a required religious practice.
