ok,i just graduated yesterday, and here is my experience.
we had THREE prayers during graduation.
they had one before the ceremony, just for students, then one on stage, and a benediction.
i thought this iwas fucknig shit, they were using school property to promote religion. i'm an atheist and i didnt lower my head or say "amen" after the prayers, but i did take my cap off (didnt wanna look odd).
the sad part is, the kids didnt write the prayers, the school adminstrators wrote the prayers for them, and printed them out and handed it to the people reading it.
i was REALLY pissed of about this, cant believe they did this.
