[Nope]

Pastor do have to pay income tax, social security tax and whatever other taxes are deducted from a paycheck. Pastors can have political conversations with there congregation and do.

Pastors are not allowed to urge their congregation to vote for candidates .

I do not know any case of students forcing other students to pray, I do know there has been many times students have been stopped by teachers from praying.

Unless the student was somehow disrupting class by praying loudly, then the teacher overstepped his/her bounds and was in the wrong. Can you provide a link to a case where a student was not allowed to pray?

All religions that are taxed would be able to display there religious symbols and creeds on public property, they would be able to carry out prayer in local government as part of their proceedings. School lead prayer at ball games, prayers to start the day of school and ect. I'm not calling for government to favor one religion over another, I've just been defending the Christian church because it's the one atheist always go after.

I'm not certain if homeroom would be long enough for your idea to work, GC. Besides it is the parents of religious students who would not want their child to say prayers to Allah, Buddha, Jesus, Ganesh etc.
