Ted Bundy and John Wayne Gacy had prayers when they were in school. Prayers in school didn’t help shite, and you’re a nutcase if you think this was what was holding them back.

Obviously there are exceptions to every rule, but you named two people. How many mass murderers have we had in the last 30 years again?

nobody is asserting that all prayer is good or helpful. Muslims pray, but they aren't praying to Jesus or through Jesus and therefore it's useless.

And they also had virtually unrestricted access to semiautomatic firearms.

And between them they murdered at least 70 school-age boys and girls, none of which met their deaths by gunfire.

I agree that the OP's premise is deeply flawed, but the fact is that killings will continue no matter what restrictions we place on gun ownership.

It's not the method, it's the madness.

It isn't the ending of prayer in schools that is the problem per se. But, rather it is a symptom of the moral decay in society in general. Same as the acceptance of abortion as ok and the presentation of sexual deviance as a normal occurrence. Once you reject the concept of God as a higher moral authority then any and all behavior is ok.
