Ah, insults. Better than honest debate, eh?
You cannot deny that allowing one religious group to speak in a public forum grants a certain ligitimacy or prestige upon it, can you? And if that's granted to one, is it right to deny it to others just because the others don't share your personal faith?

What about you? Did YOU invite HER to your last party? If not, you're just as guilty of discrimination as the Board is.

If you consider my assertion that your comments say more about your attitude then the subject at hand as an insult then not much I can do about that. As for comment about the left, would you deny that many on the left would agree with your contention?
I'm an originalist, traditionalist, and federalist. With that info you should be able to easily identify my position. If you have a problem with the local school board opening their session with a prayer then I doubt my arguments from either a traditionalist or federalist viewpoint would do much to change that.
