JOHN HAMILTON
'Extremely silent'? Not any one I know.  I heard and spoke protests, about
that an all other public prayer.

Please, Ron, name an atheist who is 'in power'.  You can spend all your
money you want to, to educate your child any way you want to.  Just don't
spend any of my money.  Public schools are for the education of all members
of our multi-cultural and multi-religious society.  How typical of theists
in power to view neutrality as antagonism.
