I don't know know if they prayed at my graduation as I chose not to waste a perfectly good afternoon on that nonsense. But I'm really sick of our current obsession with getting offended over every little thing. It's nauseating.

I'm kind of on the fence with this one myself...

On one hand - fuck you christians. FaithNoMore is right, you're just defending your OWN right to prayer you hypocritical bastards!
On the other hand - one of the things that set me apart in high school was keeping my hat on and eyes open whenever prayers were being said. That was my protest and everybody knew it. But more importantly, their stupid prayer didn't really interfere with my day, nor did it hurt me. I wasn't being forced to say incantations or do the sign of the cross. It was a momentary pause for them to say thank you to their sky captain. Stupid as it is - it's less offensive than most anything else a christian can do.

I guess I'm not always real sure where the line is on this one. I want to at least try to have some tolerance.

right?
