The answer is: The Warren Court's decision about prayer in public schools outlawed official prayers in public schools.

In 1962 the Supreme Court ruled in the case <em>Engel v. Vitali </em>that the public schools in New York were no longer obligated to let all, or most of the students recite the 'Regents Prayer'. The ruling however did not rule out all prayers in schools because students are free to say for themselves whatever prayer they wish and the school or the government cannot punish students for  doing so. Neither can they force them to say prayers before starting the school day.

  The Warren Court's decision about prayer in public schools outlawed official prayers in public schools. It happened because official praying in public schools its considered a unconstitutional action, violating the the First Amendment  of U.S Constitution that guarantees the U.S citizens, on summary, freedom of religion, speech, press and association.

  The<u> </u><u>Engel v. Vitale (1962)</u> case has made public the issue concerning the recommendation, made in 1951 by State Board of Regents from New York to New York's public schools with the purpose of <em>"Statement on Moral and  Spiritual Training in Schools", </em>that encouraged daily reciting of prayers, during the morning. Though the prayers were not mandatory and considered denominational neutral, it still violated the excerpt of the Constitution that stated "Congress should make no law respecting an establishment of religion", because official praying itself its considered a religious activity.  Thus the outcome of the case was that State officials (such as the State Board of Regents) could not compose or incite the recitation of prayers in schools.

Why did Socrates go to jail
san4es73 [151]


Socrates in prison from The Greeks documentary

After Socrates had been found guilty of impiety and corrupting the morals of the city's youth, he was next invited to propose a suitable punishment.

This was a legal tradition in Athens and an opportunity for him to show remorse, and hopefully lessen his sentence. But asked what sort of punishment he thought he should receive, he responded with an answer that was nothing short of a death wish.

He argued that he should receive the highest honors of the city and be granted free meals at the public's expense, an honor reserved for Olympian athletes.

The outraged jury voted for his death by even greater majority than had found him guilty of his alleged crimes.

Led away to the city's prison house, his trial and last days became the subject of Plato's 'Crito & Phaedo'. Visited by many people, he faced the prospect of death with characteristic unconcern, and even refused to be rescued and smuggled abroad by a group of friends.
