There are people now who are innocently attempting to get prayer and God back in public school. While I desire for God to be honored everywhere, I know that we live in a culture in which most people who talk about God do not know the One True God. Even those who claim to be Christian are allowing their children to remain in the public institutions, being brain washed by many liberal teachings and agendas. What would getting prayer in school, in our present climate create? It is my opinion, if prayer were to be re-instituted into the public system, it would be perverted to include every religion and especially Islam, since the powers that be are working to integrate Islamic lessons into the system already. When the students can go on a field trip to a Mosque but not allowed to be taken to a Christian church, we can expect that along with the teachings of the Koran in school, there will also be allowed the prayers of Islam to be observed too, as soon as the law allows. The best thing for children now, in our present world, is to keep children of Christian families out of the public institutions entirely. Parents are equipped to teach their own children at home, out of the influence of the continuing push to accept all religions as valid. We have moved passed tolerance of other religions to total acceptance. It is one thing to accept people, love them and show kindness to them no matter what their religion, but quite another to endorse their paganistic practices and prayers by involving ourselves in them. And, finally, we are responsible as parents to train and teach our own children. Our prayer as families should be in the home. Far too many fathers are neglecting prayer in the home, desiring for the church and the school to do the job of training in prayer, to those institutions, rather than doing it themselves. Lets call it what it is.......laziness and lack of interest in the things of God. If prayer is instituted in the public system, mark my words, it will extend to all religions and Islamic prayers will be favored over the intercom. Expect it. Wouldnt it be better for our children to experience prayer at home with family, rather than by ungodly teachers who are unsaved? Dont think for a minute that if prayer is endorsed by the public system that it will only be the Christian variety, as soon as legislation is passed in our houses of government, all religions will be working for that prayer to be theirs. Since our country has effectively been the country of freedom to worship as you please, we have no reason to think that the God of the Bible will be the only One prayed to and worshiped. We have only to remember the Imam that prayed in the Houses of government just recently. Prayer has always been in our tradition, but in the past it was always prayer to the God of the Bible. But now it is any prayer from anyone whom is chosen to reflect our religious diversity. How can we expect our schools to stay to the God of the Bible in prayer, when the highest government institutions of the land are using Imams, Priests, Mormon Elders and other cults to recite their prayers over the governing bodies. Before we get on any bandwagon about prayer in school, it is best to pray about it and think it through. Where does the idea of prayer in school lead to in its logical conclusion. In a godless culture where most teachers and principles are not born again, we can expect just about anything other than submission to Christ. I am not going to get on this bandwagon about prayer, I am however an advocate of parents removing their children from the public godless institutions in favor of protecting them, training them and teaching them in the ways of the Lord at home with those who love them and are dedicated to them. There are plenty of Scriptures that tell us to train our children, I dont recall any that tell us to leave that training to others to do.
