In this article the main problem was that in Greece City, New York a governmental meeting was opened with a prayer.  Two ladies protested this and took it to court.  In the end, it got voted on and it a 5-4 ruling that it was okay to open up the meeting with a prayer.  I agree that this is okay. 

Nobody was forced to say the prayer.  This opening with a prayer is a traditional thing and America should not have to change just because new comers get offended.  I believe that Christians get persecuted against more than any other religion.  If a Muslim had opened up this meeting with a traditional prayer to Allah, it most likely would have been viewed as a beautiful thing that America is so diverse and accepting.  I think that if the two women who complained, or anybody who is unhappy with the prayer for that matter of fact, should just choose not to participate, which was an option, and just take it as a moment of silence to pray to their God or reflect on their own lives.
