A local win! The city council of my adopted city–Roswell, GA–has strongly rejected a proposal to begin council meetings with prayer. What’s more, council members report that the feedback of their constituents has been overwhelmingly against having prayer. I could not be more pleased with our city council. Actually, I could be more pleased, since it was a councilwoman (Betty “Getting Back to the Roots of Our Country” Price) who introduced the proposal.

I just heard about this on an old podcast. I truly don’t understand why Christians feel their religion needs to be injected into government when it’s clear that it has no place in it. Christians are, of course, more than welcome in government. They don’t need to bring their dogma to share however.
