Do you have any sources at all for your allegations, President-X-D? A government official should not be leading citizens in a religious ceremony while acting in an official capacity. That should be obvious to anyone who can read and get ahold of a copy of the Bill of Rights.

Engel v. Vitale (1962) 1

A poor decision. If a headmaster wants to lead the school in a prayer and it is NOT mandatory and never was, what's the problem? According to the court, unwanted pressures were being put on students who do not wish to pray. WHAT pressure? They were told in no uncertain terms that the prayer is voluntary. Flash forward to today, and grade school children are being taught that Communism is OK, that gays are OK, and that the country they live in is Evil in the eyes of the world. These are not unwanted pressures? Sickening.
