Why was the Pledge Of Allegiance banned in some public schools?
Because of the inclusion of "One Nation Under God" during the 1950s, the Pledge of Allegiance, our money, the official seal etc. are all in direct violation of the Constitution. The ruling was made in 2002 so I fail to see how this has anything to do with Obama as the previous respondent suggested. The ruling has also since then been reversed.

What changes has taken place in schools since the ban of prayer?
Public schools do not have morning prayers or even speak of Jesus. If any of the teachers do, they will be fired and there are severe penalties for mentioning God's name. Some schools are considering taking out the pledge of allegiance because it says, "One nation, under God" What ever happened to freedome of speach? Freedom of religion? None of that matters to people. It's the main reason why we came to America! Why must we praise a flag, instead of praising the Living God??? Right now, as you can see, not many kids are into church or the Bible, this has caused an affect on their attitudes. It says in the Bible, "Honor thy father and thy mother," not many kids live up to that. This is one of the affects since praying was banned.
