Many modeled their laws after Virginia's, which makes the moment mandatory and lists prayer as an option. A bump for prayer, even if it is a silent minute.
The Supreme Court was wrong on this, because it is a matter of free speech not religion vs. state.

it is a matter of free speech I'm glad the religionists are rallying behind the concept of freedom of speech -- that means we can look for their support of freedom of speech next time some fanatic wants to abolish porn.

This isn't an issue in private schools. Abolish public schools an this problem goes away. Or home school. Who cares what moronic things they do in the public schools anyway? People who subject their children to public schools deserve what they get.
