There was no prayer today at our son's graduation.
   
As far as I can tell the devil hasn't taken over Florida and Earth hasn't spun off it's axis.

And all across the country there probably were many graduation ceremonies with prayers, and the earth didn't spin off its axis either.

I'm an agnostic and I don't understand the big deal if someone says a prayer during an event. Same goes if they play music that I don't like. Then again I don't spend my life trying to get offended by everything.

Screw you you stupid DUmmie. My son's college graduation had a huge moonbat for their commencement speaker. Should what she says be outlawed at graduation?  My high school daughter's test the other day asked, "since Obama has been elected, which evironmental issue has yet to be resolved (I'm paraphrasing)". Of course the answer was "Global Climate Change". The left's religion is Global Climate Change, what is the difference?

I actually think the left is more polytheistic (is that the word I'm looking for?) and has many religions. Global Climate Change is one of the top ones. I think their religion of "me" is probably at the very top. Give me! Listen to me! Grant me! Hand out to me! Bow down to me!

They really are part of the me generation.

The choir students (myself included) in my graduating class sang Michael W. Smith's "Friends."

Is that the one he sang with Amy Grant?

Not to date myself, but back in the day, he sang it solo.  I think he did do a duet of it with her more recently, though.

I was just wondering. I know way back when I graduated the students wanted to play a song by him that had "friends are friends forever when the Lord is lord of them". The school wouldn't let us, but it was supposedly not due to religious reasons. It was the first time I had ever heard the song. This version only had him singing except for the chorus, but a few years later I asked about it at a Christian book and record store and they told me it was by him and Amy Grant but they didn't have the album. I figured she must be the backup singer.

Not meaning to get too far off topic, but one Christian song that I really like is "Love in any Language" by Sandi Patti. The first time I heard it was at my brother's wedding.

They definitely worship at the feet of their Leftist personalities, whom they've set up as near-demigods. Look at how they swoon over and hang on every word of a Keith Olbermann or Rachel Maddow and then go into deep depression or fly into a violent rage if one of them gets shitcanned. Of course, they're a fickle lot, too. One wrong word from their man-gods and they turn their collective back on them. That's why they need a huge pantheon of media deities. They go through them so quickly.
