I'm a believer. My wife, child and I go to our cozy little traditional Lutheran church every Sunday. I play the organ, direct the adult choir (who actually sound pretty good for a bunch of hacks) and even cook for Summer Bible Camp every year. But what you are describing sounds too close to state-enforced religion for my comfort. A public schoolboard meeting is not a religious service.
