If people feel uncomfortable praying at the graduation, then they can just not pray. They can be respectful of those who are. That is their right.

What if some one holds beliefs different from yours? If someone wanted a prayer in Hindi or Arabic, would you allow that too? What if some one followed the occult, could they then conduct a pagan ritual in front of the graduating class? Equal voice or no voice. A prayer that makes no reference to no one single religion, god, or culture is the only acceptable one.

I want there to be a prayer that revolves around the teachings of the Satanic Bible, and any one who objects can choose not to participate while those who want to, can assist in singing the praises of the Church of Satan and our Lord Satan. It's only fair that we do both, right? That's what everyone else has been saying.

Kevin does have a point... but I feel like if they would like some different form of prayer or praise, then they have the right to have that prayer, and the others should be respectful. Not saying I agree with Satanic practices at all, but they do have rights too. So if they want different ones, they should request them.

Federal authorities in Omaha say they've broken up a substantial drug ring with the arrest of 11 suspects. FBI Special Agent Weysan Dun hopes the sting will bring a sizeable disruption to drug trafficking in the region. Agent Dun says, "These individuals are suspected of being significant sources of much of the methamphetamine that is being trafficked in eastern Nebraska and western Iowa."
