Even though the U.S. Supreme Court banned school-sponsored prayer in public schools over 50 years ago, most Americans do not think that it should be that way.
A new poll out from Gallup shows that 61 percent of Americans are in favor of "allowing daily prayer to be spoken in the classroom." Although this number has declined from previous years -- in 2001, 66 percent of Americans said they favored prayer in the classroom -- it still signifies that most Americans disagree with the Supreme Court's previous rulings on the issue.

Responses to the Gallup poll were somewhat divided by party line, with Republicans being more likely to support religion in school.
And those who don't believe in God? Are they allowed to stay out as long as they pray?
Cause srsly, if I was going to school in America, I would not enter the class until they are done.
Then think to yourself about world peace or something. They won't physically be able to do anything, unless you're jumping around screaming in the middle of it in which case you need help anyway
Stop trying to take religion away from people, the majority agrees and you're pressed.
I'm not taking religion away from people. It should be practiced in their own free time and not forced in a school setting. Since when did someone automatically become "pressed" when they have a different opinion?
