State sponsored or not, why should someone be forced into a religious activity in order to participate in a sport? Anyone who wishes to pray before eating is certainly free to do so without requiring

Regarding the invocations at the banquets... not necessary. Moment of silence, sure. For those of us who are of non-Christian religious persuasions, no religious persuasion at all, and even for many

I'd say the quickest way to offend those who really do appreciate the prayer is to get up and walk out of the room. I'm just curious as to why there is so much bickering going on. What is wrong with
