The true meaning of separation of church and state was meant to protect the churches from the government. Liberals have taken this out of context and pushed it to mean the church isn't allowed to do anything outside of the church. This was put in by Thomas Jefferson whom was a very devout Christian.

I know you are all right, and yes, believers are faced with HUGE challenges. Thankfully ( you are my rock LORD ) we have Him, who created ALL that is to lead us, amen ?

The scripture says to be wise as serpents and as gentle as doves.

I do not care for questions that ask what would you do in some given senario.  They can seduce well meaning Christians into using speculative imagination to try and answer for something they have no practical experience with and cause them to eventually be tested when the enemy comes before God and accuses them of being a liar.

That said, I have never had it happen so I don't know.

Why would a Christian have no experience with praying in public?

an odd question.  If your referring to my post above,  I was referencing that I have no experience in being challenged for doing so.

In this clip, from ABC's What Would You Do, a family is praying before their meal in a restaurant when an Atheist speaks up and complains....

I cannot say, I never experienced people praying before eating.

But, I wonder why an atheist should be disturbed by people praying for a few seconds in a restaurant. That is quite unintelligible to me. 

Even if I were disturbed, there is not a lot I could say. It would be like complaining about someone smoking when there is no law against smoking in that restaurant.

With The Spirit of God within us, those which have been born again, we see the depth of this account as
those fearful of judgment and the activity opens up that place of fear... this is what is spiritually going on!

If one really examines this- it is hypocrisy for one who claims the atheist position to object to something
they say does not exist.... the very objection says they are unsure of themselves for theirs is a faith as
well!
Love, Steven

never had a problem praying before eating in public. If asked I would tell that I am asking God to bless the food and giving Him thanks.
