Fail. Reading a prayer is not a prayer at all unless the reader intends it to be. So the teacher can read it and pray, or read it and not prayer. Thus, prayer is not mandated
Twisted logic would be claiming that a teacher reading the prayer of someone else to students is the same as the teacher praying. You might as well claim that if the teacher reads the Gettysburg Address, he is actually giving the Gettysburg address. Or that when a teacher reads the President's oath of office to his students, he is thus taking the oath of officePretzels are less twisted than this logic.

Civic lesson
Prayers are to civics lessons as:
a) jello is to cockroach
b) garbage is to ocean
c) cellophane is to bookshelf
d) lotteries are to pencils
Perhaps you should have read the proposed law
A BILL TO BE ENTITLED AN ACT
To prescribe a period of time in the public schools not to exceed 15 minutes for study of the formal procedures followed by the United States Congress, which study shall include a reading verbatim of one of the opening prayers given by the House or Senate Chaplain or a guest member of the clergy at the beginning of a meeting of the United States House of Representatives or Senate.

I didn't. It stated the purpose which, contrary to what has been claimed, was not mandatory prayer
Being the actual text of the bill, yes. The mandatory prayer notion has been thoroughly debunked
The prayers are part of the formal procedure so the pertinent part was indeed highlighted, PROVING that the bill in no way mandates prayer in public schoolPlease don't try to dismiss the fact that you neglected to highlight the pertinent part relating to the prayers.
We see what you did and what you are trying to do.
LOL

The courts are going to decide on the issue and Christians are not going to like it. Luckily for us, we don't have to worry.
And the opinion of the one man who counts.
