No opening prayer in Indiana House session
January 10, 2006
Remember, a federal court judge ruled that Indiana House members could not open their sessions with a prayer that was made in the name of Jesus Christ.
With the opening of the new session, Speaker Brian Bosma decided to do away with all opening prayers. Members get together on the floor and pray among themselves.
The Indy Star, in an editorial, says it's time for both sides in the prayer fight to take a break. My question:
- Would it have been biblical for Speaker Bosma to disregard the court order and have a Christ-centered opening prayer anyway?
