Sam Hodges reports:
The National Day of Prayer – which by federal law occurs the first Thursday in May – remains ensnared by differing, strongly held points of view. Now it must contend with a federal district judge's ruling that it violates the U.S. Constitution.
Judge Barbara Crabb of Wisconsin put the effect of her April 15 decision on hold, pending appeals.
[...] she said the government can no more encourage citizens to pray than to "fast during the month of Ramadan, attend a synagogue, purify themselves in a sweat lodge or practice rune magic."
