DeSantis signs bill requiring schools to provide a moment each morning for prayer. ?
"It’s something that’s important to be able to provide each student the ability, every day, to be able to reflect and to be able to pray as they see fit," DeSantis said during a Monday press conference. "The idea that you can just push God out of every institution, and be successful — I'm sorry, our founding fathers did not believe that."

We need a bigger scale to measure the unmatched based levels Ron is consistently reaching.
Somethings are ok remaining secular.
There's a difference between ending schools teaching secularism, and schools simply being secular. The seperation between chuirch and state is the guard on on both sides. It's tempting to see schools trying to indoctrinate childrten to abandon faith and think to swing the pendulum in the opposite direction, because it makes sense to imagine there being an opposite direction.
But there isn't. There is only one wrong and one direction that both errors fall in: injecting belief. Be that belief in this god, that god, no god, and the dogma that surrounds each competing theocracy. Schools aren't the place for this. And while guard against secular theism is critical, that guard does not take the form of alternative theocracy.
The bill doesn't force kids to pray nor does it have the teachers leading a prayer session. It literally just provides students the opportunity to pray if they so choose. There's nothing wrong with that nor does it violate the separation of church and state.
Call it a moment for 'self-reflection' if the word' prayer' is troublesome. It hurts no-one.
Why not have an adjoined chapel? You don't have to use it if you don't want to.
Making one for every single religion observed in the school might be expensive.
People have rights and there is nothing wrong with providing a moment for people to pray if they choose. Your reasoning would also include not saying the pledge of allegiance. WHY are they allowed to teach evolution which takes more faith to believe in than a Creator?
Schools aren't the place for this.
Schools are facilities that are paid for, and supported by, local taxes. They're exactly the place where this should happen. Classrooms should be available early on school days. Each flavor of religion could have its own classroom for thirty minutes. Local clergy could lead and missions teams could provide breakfast for the children. A determined citizenry could make this happen if it took control of its school board.
Right, they are government facilities, this makes them NOT the place for this. The seperation between church and state isn't some modern interpretation from some activist retard liberal judge, it is the explicit original intent of the founders who wrote the constiution.
Religion is on you, the government doesn't exist to touch it in any way. Not to deny it, not to facilitate it, nothing.
Signing a bill is literally in opposition to "shall pass no law..."
That would be beautiful.
Morality is not the exclusive domain of theology. How arrogant must you be to think theology has a monopoly on morality. If the founders felt the government had a place using the power of government to empower religion, they wouldn't have explicitly denied the government that role, and repeatedly made their position clear on the matter.
Kindly piss off. My government has no business injecting itseld into the domain of religion. Not in denying it, not in supporting it, not in making a space for it, nothing, zero, nada. It passes laws and enforces them. It doesn't decide there needs to be more or less religion in this space or that.
