Lodi may be headed for prayer lawsuit

Freedom From Religion Foundation will 'see how it pans out'
02.10.09, LODINEWS.COM (US). The day after a highly anticipated decision by the Lodi City Council on prayer, the leader of a national group says it will likely sue Lodi or another city in California over their practices. "We'll see how it pans out and probably will have to sue because there is widespread disrespect for the law in the state of California," said Annie Gaylor, co-founder of the Freedom From Religion Foundation. Her comments come after the council decided to broaden its prayer policy to allow religious leaders to offer uncensored prayers, so Christian leaders will be able to say "Jesus Christ."
