Holding public prayer does not equate to participating in whatever faith. Allowing something is not endorsement of it.
I am not participating in their faith, but I am participating in the ceremony whether I like it or not. This is an official city meeting and should not be turned, even temporarily, into a church service.
Oh you're Christian, if religion makes you think churches, you are Christian. Every actively religious person I know has never said the word "church" in our conversations unless it's specific to those Christian people.
I have no idea what you are talking about but had you watched the video in the article you would see it was clearly a christian prayer being discussed. For the record I am not affiliated with any religion as I find the whole concept of gods ridiculous.
