Question: How do we go about getting mandatory prayer time implemented into all the public school curriculums?
-----
Having a designated time during the school day (preferably an hour or two, though maybe a little longer) during which kids are required to pray to the one true God is the only way to solve all the problems that are troubling our schools. We must get this put into the school day as soon as possible. How do we do this?
And please don't say there's not enough time during the school day. There is plenty of time. If the current curriculums do not allow enough time for this, then we can cut back on time spent on certain subjects to allow for prayer time. For example, we could cut back on time spent on math and science and use that time for required prayer. God can serve the kids much better than a bunch of algorithms and crap about nature and water and all that jazz.

Better be a fucking poe. If not, when was the last time prayer wiped out small pox? when was the last time prayer sent a robot to fucking Mars? You can go pray to your imaginary friend, we'll stay in the real world developing all the technologies that you need to survive.

First, school is for learning things that can actually be usefull, like math or reading and spelling.
Second, your child can pray in school, they cannot force others to pray. If we make prayer to your god legal, then we would have to make prayer to everyone's god legal.

Oh of course! They can still get jobs as creationist "scientists". Just like Kent Hovind!

Who's that? Allah, Yaweh(sp?), Thor, Odin, Zeus?
Tell me!

Then you'll have the problem of kids fighting over who is the true God.
Either this is a Poe or it's made of industrial grade fail.
How about everyone who wants to pray shows up at 6:30 and prays all they want, then everyone else comes there at 8:00 for school? Or better yet, everyone who wants to pray gets their lazy ass up at 6:30 and prays all they want at home, then everyone comes to school at 8:00?
What? That doesn't work? That only gets your own perfect little God-fearing, butter-wouldn't-melt-in-their-mouth Jesus-ass-kissing kids to pray? You don't get to force all the children of devil-spawned, atheist, Volvo-driving, latte-sipping liberals to pray too? Gee. Tough. Raise your own kids and get your nose out of everyone else's business and leave them to raise theirs, Mr. "I'm perfect and everyone else needs my help raising their kids" asshole.
I would say this is a poe... but I have met someone in real life much like this who was not a poe. And my reaction is the same...
WHAT! THE! HELL? *eye twitch*
Then again, I know someone who said gravity can't be true since clouds are made up of water. I hope after our talk he understood differently... if he did, then these people may have hope after all.
I think John answered this perfectly...im too shocked to think up a response to that question, im just 'WTF!!?"

People who really care about the future of the American education system, its world competitiveness, its economy, and its very existence...help shut this moron up now.
Cleverly offhand with his similes, but the syntax, grammar, punctuation and spelling are much too refined for the type of mouth-breather this is supposed to represent.
Po'.
Ok, I pray for a delicious deli-style roast-beef, turkey, cheese sandwich.
*prays*
Damn, I'm still hungry and late for school.
"God can serve the kids much better than a bunch of algorithms and crap about nature and water and all that jazz."
Yeah, you're a perfect example of that, aren't you? Imbecile.
Knowing math, physics and biology has been invaluable to me and if anyone should deny children that sort of knowledge in exchange for wasting time talking to the ceiling then watch out because the retribution will come.
NO! No, no, no, no, no, NO!
School is for LEARNING. NOT. PREACHING. KEEP THE PRAYER IN THE CHURCH.
IN SCHOOLS YOU TEACH NOT PREACH.
You're from Kansas, aren't you?
PLease tell me you're a Troll, please? Pretty please?
An hour or two?
"For example, we could cut back on time spent on math and science"
"God can serve the kids much better than a bunch of algorithms and crap"
Yeah. Like, who needs to be able to program computers or do aerodynamics for airplanes?!?
GOD will solve complex matrix equations for them!
Except He never does that.
Of course. No need for all that book lernin.
I wish these types would haul their ignorant asses to some theocratic state and live it up.
Leave the rest of us the fuck alone.
I concur. Having a time during which children are required to pray to Satan, the one true god, is a great idea. Actually, while we're at it, why not sacrifice one or two of them each day?

1.. Is it you or is it your god that is up for tyrant of the year award this year.
2.. Now your thinkng.........like a Muslim.
3.. It's interesting that you would refer to God's creation of nature as "crap". Teaching children about math and science will encourage them to appreciate the fragile world that they are living in, and hopefully, help them to find better solutions to heal and repair a dying planet. Water is vital for our very survival. Without it we simply couldn't exist. Your lack of concern for the very planet that your Creator put you on is astounding. Many of the problems that are concerning you begin in dysfunctional homes and not in the schools. There's no denying that the schooling system is in crisis, but to suggest that the problems begin and end with the schools is erroneous. I have nothing against prayer, but to ask children of different faiths, such as Christianity, Judaism, Islam or Hinduism etc, who share the same classroom, to pray to your one true God, is a contradiction in terms.
4.. Step 1: Make your own country, because it sure as hell isn't happening in the US or Canada or wherever you are
Step 2: Bring a whole bunch of like-minded people with you.
Step 3: Create a theocracy and mandate prayer in schools.
Step 4: ???
Step 5: PROFIT!

IMO, you are too idle or too stupid to even begin to understand the subjects taught, so you hide behind "the Goat Sodomisers Handbook" as justification.
You actually take pride in being ignorant.

You don't. End of story.
I have never ever gotten any help from God, but my knowing "math and crap about nature and all that jazz" have certainly helped me get to where I am today.
Can't kids pray before or after school, or during lunch hour. And shouldn't a prayer be heartfelt? Being required to pray does not breed heartwarm feelings.
> For example, we could cut back on time spent on math and science and use that time for required prayer.
Yeah, go on, do that. We'll stand back and watch.
Goodbye, America. Thanks for all the discoveries and inventions you contributed to the sum of humanity's accomplishments. We'll send you a couple of sacks of wheat and a crate of spam when the next generation runs out of food (and you can thank God for it if you like; I don't mind).
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
