    We Need More Prayer In Public Schools: Article Analysis

    Justice Hugo Black, the Justice which authored the court’s opinion in Engel v. Vitale stated in the decision, stated “The prayer of each man from his soul must be his and his alone. That is the genius of the First Amendment”(qtd in Lewis). Prayer and religion needs to be between him or herself and the God in which they believe in. The government has no authority to allow these activities to exist in public education. It would not only cause schools to alienate some of the student body who happen to be in the religious minority but it is possible that it would cause great emotional stress. If religious prayer is so important to a student then I would argue for the parents to move that student to a religious based school. It would be that easy. And what of the many faiths? It would almost be impossible to allow religion in public schools because of the many faiths there are. Which religion should the prayer come from? Islam, Judaism, Hindu, Buddhist, Catholic, Pagan, Rastafarian, Taoism? The logistics of such a conquest would be an enormous and painstakingly time consuming. It would remove important time from learning. Public schools should just remain what they are, “public’. It is where the vast majority of students in a given city, of all faiths and walks of life, come to…

    Engel Vs. Vitale And Abington V. Schempp

    The education of the nation’s youth has always been a contentious issue. One of the largest issues facing the education system is the integration of sectarian religions such as prayers into the classroom and other extensions of the education system. In the mid to late 1900s, several court cases went before the Supreme Court involving various aspects of state sponsored prayers. The two major cases involving prayers in schools were Engel v. Vitale and Abington v. Schempp. Within these two cases, the Court successfully and diligently balanced the Establishment Clause and the Free Exercise Clause and paved the way for the Lemon Test and Endorsement Test.…

    Belonging- Romulus My Father

    Belonging is a paradoxical concept illustrating an individual’s sense of inclusions and exclusion simultaneously. This is evident in Raimond Gaita’s memoir Romulus My father as the individuals Romulus, Raimond and Christine experience the dynamic changes evident in the concept of belong to place, society and community. Armin Greder also explores the fluid and dynamic nature of belonging through his picture book ‘The Island’ through the isolation of the protagonist within the confinements of the island.…

    Belonging - Peter Skrzynecki/Hairspray

    Belonging is a feeling an individual experiences when they feel a sense acceptance within a group. Once an individual experiences this they begin to feel a sense of identity and confidence within themself. It is believed that an individual's interaction with others and the world around them can either enrich or even limit their experience of belonging. Both of Peter Skrzynecki's poems “10 Mary Street” and “St Patricks College” along with the 2007 film “Hairspray” explores this concept.…

    Belonging Essay 'Romulus My Father', 'the Lost Thing' and 'the Catcher in the Rye'

    An individual’s interaction with others and the world around them can enrich or limit their experience of belonging to an environment. ‘Romulus My Father’ demonstrates this through the profound sense of acceptance that exists within Raimond. He delivers his observations in a reflective and thoughtful tone, particularly in his recollections of his father, as he “loved him too deeply… no quarrel could estrange (them)” and felt a genuine sense of familial belonging. This is also evident even after Christine dies. He observed, “We came together as son and husband with the woman whose remains lay beneath us.” Juxtaposed against Raimond’s belonging is the suffering of Christine in her displacement. Christine struggles to be the mother that society expects her to be, and her inability to relate and conform is described by Raimond as, “a troubled city girl, she could not settle… in a landscape that highlighted her isolation.” Raimond’s despondent tone conveys how Christine could not fit into the community and in Australia. As a result, her isolation and alienation lead her to betray the institution of family juxtaposed by “I felt awkward with her,” which shows that Raimond’s relationship with his mother has lost the familial belonging it once contained. Similar to Christine’s feelings of estrangement,…

    Essay On First Amendment In Public Schools

    The first amendment in the US constitution states that Congress shall “make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting thereof.” A metaphoric wall has always existed between the church and state, according to Thomas Jefferson in 1947 (McCarthy, Martha).That wall has been in the center of many court cases in the Supreme Court linked to public schools. The public school setting has always been a major area of controversy concerning the separation of church and state. Albeit with some exceptions, the separation of church and state should not take place in public schools.…
