What I find so ironic is if Muslims were fighting to have a Muslim lead prayer at this gradutaion, the same people throwing a fit about prayer being banned would be abolsutely furious. Let's be very clear on this issue, they are NOT defending prayer in school. They are defending THEIR prayer in school. These people are all for religious freedom and strict constitutionalism as long as it doesn't impede on their rights. Everyone else's rights can be ignored if it means spreading the word of their lord.
Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cozy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own - Bertrand Russell
