  4. Today's Buzz: Supremes: Open public meetings with prayer?

    The U.S. Supreme Court has agreed to consider later this year whether it’s constitutional for a town council to open its meetings with a prayer from a Christian pastor. Three decades ago, the high court ruled it was not unconstitutional for a state legislature to begin its sessions with a non-denominational prayer. But in recent years, lower courts have concluded that government bodies that begin their meetings with a prayer favoring one religion may be violating the First Amendment ban on “establishing” a religion. Should the Supremes allow prayers at government meetings, or ban them? Do you think prayer is an important part of those meetings? Can government represent people equally if it doesn’t regularly include prayers for their religion in public meetings? Talk about it!
