Surveying For Public Prayer

I made a little survey, and made a chart of the results, for at least 20 kids of every grade level to get a little idea of what people think about Praying in Schools. I was shocked, but glad to see that nobody said yes. I didnt get one person saying that praying in school is wrong. So...that makes me wonder, why is it so bad to pray in school or have a prayer club, when no one thinks it's wrong? I think the government and principals in public schools should re-think this idea of not being able to have prayer clubs, or anything like that. I think everyone would be surprised of what prayer can do, if only they would let prayer clubs be ok in schools.

Praying in public, is it so bad?

For many years the government has separated church from state or even country, for that matter. The First amendment was a total failure, because it says we can have prayer, but then for the longest time now, we haven't been able to pray in our own schools. I don't think it should be as big as a problem as people make it out to be. The one who is doing the praying isn't bugging anyone, they are by themselves so they can be in private and talk to God without any interruptions. The Bible even says in I Timothy 4:12 "Don't let anyone think less of you because you are young. Be an example to all believers in what you teach, in the way you live, in your love, your faith, and your purity." I love that verse because I'm a 100% behind it! And I believe every word it says. I think it is the coolest thing ever to see little kids or even teens going on there lunch break or recess and finding a quite little place to pray; either by themselves or with their friends. I don't see why parents, teachers, or the government has a problem with praying in public. We are not hurting anyone.
