Murray (the author of Let us pray, a plea for
prayer in our schools) along with the rest of
the school, recited some religious things
that deeply offended Madalyn. She forced her

so she knew what was going on. Before she
walked through the hallways and heard

happened. Madalyn Murray O hair began to

prove to the nation that forcing the religious
things on their children went against the 1st
