How Do Crime Rates Compare For Countries, Which Banned School Prayer, Compare To Countries With School Prayer?
I haven’t been able to find any stats about this particular issue. I don’t know the status of school prayer in other countries, not including religious schools. There are figures relating to behavioral changes in the US since 1963, but there is no way those changes can be attributed solely to the removal of prayer from our public schools. This country has gone through many changes in the 45 years since the end of school prayer. Behavioral changes always accompany technological and social changes. Statistics can be manipulated to support almost anything. There is no reason to believe those changes are directly related to the lack of prayer in public schools.
