Court: Colorado Day of Prayer Is Unconstitutional
posted on May 21, 2012The Colorado Court of Appeals recently ruled that the proclamations by Colorado governors for a state “Day of Prayer” are unconstitutional. Christianity Today’s Morgan Feddes reports that the three-judge panel specified that its decision was based on the idea that “religious liberty protected by the Constitution is abridged when the State [sic] affirmatively sponsors the particular religious practice of prayer.” Feddes adds, “[t]he court did not make any judgment on the National Day of Prayer, and it was quick to point out that its decision did not affect anyone’s right to pray.”
