There are at least 12 prominent religions around the world. Many of them are practicing in the U.S. at any given time.
After reading Roy's piece about the SCOTUS decision in favor of the coach praying on the 50 yard line, I'm just wondering if the decision is inclusive or exclusive. After all, not long ago, wasn't there a severe backlash against the teaching of world religions in public schools from an historical point? Didn't the very people now cheering this SCOTUS decision have a major meltdown and were on the verge of going all out nuclear over the issue?
Twelve world most prominent religions include: Judaism, Hinduism, Christianity, Islam, Jainism, Baha'i, sikhism, Zorastrainism, Confucianism, Shinto, Taoism, Buddhism.
How many are practiced in the U.S. I'm not sure. But would they be accepted if or when any decide to show up on the 50 yard line to do their "thang"?
What about Satanism? Isn't Satanism considered a religion too? What's going to happen should a Satanist show up and demand to carry out a Satanic ritual on the 50 yard line? WIcca anyone?
I haven't been to any sports event in a very long time, but such an event would be a phenomenal thing to watch if only to witness some of you blowing a fuse with your eyes bulging out of your heads and steam streaming from your ears and nose.
The U.S. Constitution/ First Amendent doesn't favor any one religion over the next.
