   “No body was forcing anyone to pray in schools…” Oh really? The whole point of the prayer in school controversy was that it was BEING MANDATED by the schools, rather than being freely chosen by the children, for example, during recess (which is still perfectly legal).

   Roger Scruton is correct that religion is being pushed to be privatized, which is wrong; but he appears to be severely confused about the purpose of the No Establishment clause.
