Composition II Unit 3 Assignment 2: Exploratory Paper Prayer in Public Schools Since the US Supreme Court ruled that prayer should not be in public schools‚ it has changed the way Americans feel towards religion and state and it has also affected the upbringing of our children.

This commonly arises on families with one parent left to guide their children

One vivid parallel I got from the book was that even though plants have thistles and vines have thorns‚ there are beautiful flowers still grow on them. This works
