6. The leverage the radical American clerics have is chilling

No one is prevented from prayer in school and by the same measure, no one should be forced, either. Required prayer is not protection, but coercion.

Granted, my own prayers in school usually took place seconds after an unannounced quiz was being handed out, but no one ever knew I engaged in it, let alone could prevent it.

The leverage the radical American clerics have over our culture is chilling, and that it's being done for power is actual apostasy.
