A Reply to Reno | National Catholic Reporter by MSW.  MGB: Elites do have a bit of say, especially when unfettered, on matters of public faith - especially but not exclusively school prayer.  Bishops are included in the elite and last I checked the New Evangelization was not about being nice to people but by Catholicizing them.  Given the ugliness in that hierarchy at present, I don't see how adult bapitsms are going to be any different next year than they were last year - this being the test of evangelization - conversion.  (That includes Israel by the way, all protests to the contrary).  As to the wisdom of the current separations in education - imagine a Satanist (which is essentially a form of hyper-secularism) school principal, with a similarly aligned staff which also made up the majority of the student banner (assume they play Marilyn Manson each morning over the PA and offer a prayer).  What are the rights of the group of Catholic students in the school?  Do you give them an alterate day (ridicule and all) or was the Supreme Court correct after all?  Argument ad abusurdum?  Absolutely - but it was what atheist and Jewish schools really faced.
