My , realization of this was reinforced when 1 read a piece by a Massachusetts state senator in which he wrote that a catastrophe is lurking, waiting to destroy us all, because the President of the United States "wants to establish prayer in the public schools.” Just imagine the evils that will be visited upon us if children are allowed to pray in the public schools. What if their prayers were answered" “I remember that some of us prayed in the public schools many years ago. Some of my friends, not I, heaven forbid, you’ll excuse the expression, sometimes prayed for the school to burn down. Usually those prayers were offered just before important examinations.

Each morning our teacher opened her Bible (New Testament) and said, ‘Children, join me in prayer.’ Along with a minority of my classmates, I was Jewish. I’d look at the selected prayer of the day and sometimes I’d join in the

The prayer Over, we all then stood up to pledge allegiance to the American flag — without the current phrase ‘under God’ following after ‘one nation’ — and then got on with the business of education. “Somehow, then, before schoolchildren had been recognized as perfect models for psychological study, we never gave a thought to our participation, or lack of same, in school prayer.
