A Florida county’s policy of excluding atheists and humanists from offering invocations at board meetings violates the U.S. Constitution’s prohibition on government establishment of religion, an appeals court panel ruled Monday.
Five individuals who identify as atheists sued the board. Four of them also call themselves “humanist.” The U.S. 11th Circuit Court of Appeals said the policy violates the U.S. Constitution’s Establishment Clause.

In this day and age, I'm not surprised. I don't know what Christians are supposed to do - I would probably stand with my hands at my side, eyes wide open, and praying in my head to God Almighty. What I would be praying for would be moment-specific, probably.
