Texas City Council Urges School Prayer
In Brazoria, Texas, city council last Tuesday passed a resolution calling for prayer to be a part of public schools and urging other Texas cities to pass similar resolutions. Today’s Houston Chronicle quotes Brazoria mayor Ken Corley as saying: "My goal is to just bring God back into the lives of these kids through our school system." Houston attorney and ACLU member, Randall Kallinen, said that there is nothing wrong with the resolution so long as it is merely a non-binding expression of Council's opinion.
