I am sorry but this is just another argument in support of the so-called "tyranny of the majority". Just because a majority wants a thing doesn't mean that we should ignore the rights of a minority.

Religion does not belong in a public school. If you want prayer in your schools, start a private school. At best, lobby for a prayer room in your school so you can do it outside of the curriculum.
