Yellow school bus
School bus driver George Nathaniel believes that "children need more prayer in their lives" - even in public school, where it's constitutionally prohibited.

A 54-year-old Minnesota school bus school bus driver was yanked from his route after it was discovered that he regularly led students in prayer during the two-hour drive. The driver, George Nathaniel confessed to praying on the job, but denied he forced any students to pray with him. Those who participated did so willingly, he said.

However, Nathaniel went on to admit that his ultimate goal is to convert children to Christianity. He believes that "children need more prayer in their lives" - even in public school, where it's constitutionally prohibited.

This wasn't his first offense, either. Nathaniel apparently has a bad habit of proselytizing to youngsters - he was fired from a previous bus driving job four years ago for doing the exact same thing. "You've got the freedom to exercise your religious beliefs," Nathaniel said after learning of the suspension. "That's where the Constitution comes in."

Apparently he never read the part about separation of church and state.

Complaints Come to Light

After the allegations went public, the school bus company was quick to point out that religious expression wasn't at issue here. Apparently, their employees are given ample time for personal prayer - just not around students. They acknowledge it was unacceptable for Nathaniel to "influence minors to the point where he was forcing them to pray." Moreover, they warn this particular driver is stuck in his ways. "He's not going to change. His main focus is to influence even one person in following what he worships," said a company representative.

Nathaniel was shocked to learn that any parent would take issue with his prayer regimen, declaring he'd been very open about his intentions from the start. One father, Art Loghinov, insisted that while he had no problem with his two children "knowing more about Jesus," he is uncomfortable with kids being "pushed" toward a particular religion.

The Prayer Predicament

The Constitution mandates that schools cannot give preference to any one religion over another. However, we're living in a fantasy land if we think religion and education will never intersect. This principle of separating church and state makes sense in theory, but proves quite difficult to carry out in practice. The sheer number of religious students and teachers (and apparently, bus drivers) makes eliminating infractions nearly impossible.

For example, last year a high school in East Texas decided to hang up flag displaying a Christian cross. It wasn't removed until the Freedom From Religion Foundationgot involved, demanding it be removed because it served as a clear endorsement of Christianity. Students responded by defiantly flying their own personal Christian flags on school grounds in protest.

In another case, coaches from the East Coweta High School football team in Georgia werebarred from praying with students while in their official capacities, regardless of whether or not students were okay with it.

What's the Solution?

Clearly bus drivers should not be doubling as youth outreach officers for the church, looking to convert students during school hours. But some think the Constitution overreaches when dealing with religion. If every student on the bus is okay with saying prayers, then should government officials be able to stop them?

What if the students themselves decided to organize a prayer group on the bus? Is it the bus driver's job to put an end to this activity to avoid the possibility of offending non-religious students? Proponents of prayer in school argue that America is a Christian nation at heart, and any attempt to curtail expressions of faith is an attack on freedom of religion.

But opponents point out that like it or not, the Constitution is crystal clear on this issue. If even one student on the bus is uncomfortable, allowing prayer to go on would be a gross violation of their civil rights. There's a reason we call it "tyranny of the majority."

    Again, prayer is NOT prohibited in schools. It just can not be led by school staff or educators. The students can pray all they like, AS LONG AS IT DOES NOT DISRUPT THE CLASS.

    As the driver is classified as staff, he went "over the line" to preach at the students.

      This is a crime. He is an employee of the state and in doing so he does not have a race, religion, or cultural back ground when on the clock. He should be suspended without pay and made an example of .By taking classes about diversity and how he is no part of it .

        Danny Boss, it is not correct to state that this gentleman is an employee of the state because he is not. He's an employee of the bus company that is contracted by the school district also he does have a race, religion and cultural background while he's on the clock he just can not force any of his personal beliefs on anyone he comes in contact with and that is against the law because it folds into brainwashing. Suspending him is not helping the situation any and taking diversity classes because he's spreading his beliefs doesn't fit the situation at all. I think that because this was not his first time doing this than maybe you should remove him from bus driver and the children and put him someplace in the company where there are no children. hmmm!

          I don't think the picture of that bus driver depicts him as a gentleman or even prominent in any way. He looks like a besheviled old wino who just wandered out of an alley. He probably stole his Bible from a mission. It's hard to believe they'd give him a job driving a school bus. Did anyone check his credentials. Maybe he just watched my all time favorite movie Catch Me If You Can. His next job will probably be as an airline pilot. I can hear him preaching over the loud speaker.

            I'm in agreement that private religion has no business in a public school. But what a hateful load if bigotry. Because you find him unattractive, doesn't mean gis driving record or other credentials aren't impeccable.

      The bus driver may not necessarily be considered a "staff" person with the school district. A lot of schools contract out to other companies to provide bus services. Depending on what is in that contract, it may be just fine. I certainly wouldn't go so far as to jump to a conclusion that it is a "crime" as there are too many unknown variables.

        As a contractor he represents the school district. The students are in a closed setting from which they can't escape. My daughter enjoyed a lively debate on politics with other students on a school bus. They had a chance to interact, learn from each other, a chance to learn persuasion techniques. No harm, no foul. At the end of the route, my daughter was the last rider on the bus. The driver refused to let my child exit the bus until the driver delivered a stern lecture on why my child was wrong and would burn in hell. That driver was disciplined.

          One single word: Crusade. And they were not all done to get Jerusalem free of Muslim control. Half of them were fought to convert one group of Christians to the ways of another group. It's just that Muslims are about 700 years behind Christianity (which is logical, because the Hajira didn't happen until about 720 AD). One of the main reasons why I left monotheistic faith was the fact that they don't practice what they preach, as a general rule. And, consider the fact that there are about 1 billion Muslims, out of 7 billion people on this planet. If all Imams were preaching this, rather than just the Wahabis, they would each only have to kill 6 people to wipe everyone else out, Don't confuse the Wahabis with ALL Muslims, unless you want me to group you in with Jehovah Witnesses and the Westboro Baptists. Study history, rather than spouting what you have been programmed to say by mass media.

            John - Islam does not command the killing of anyone who is non-Muslim. The infidel/kafir/unbeliever is the invader, who was well known to rape, pillage and murder people in their homes. Most people do not understand this concept.

            A lot of people don't seem to realize that the bible, as well as the kuran were written long ago when people lived much differently and had different beliefs and morals than we do now. Everything written in those books reflected what was going on back then, and didn't make any references about how anyone should do anything hundreds and thousands of years in the future, after the world became a totally different place. Instead of them living their lives based on the dictates of ancient, irrelevant dogma, why don't they try developing healthy, moral consciences, and living by that ?

          Doug - It might help if you learn what the religion you are attempting to defame actually teaches. Please read what I posted to John Anderson.

          Mohammedism? No such thing. Muslims do not follow Muhammad. They follow the same God of Abraham that Christians and Jews follow. Unlike the Jew, the Muslim sees Jesus not only as the greatest Prophet of God, but also savior as well.

Koran 5​:​33 Main and crucify the infidels if they criticize Islam. Koran 6:12 terrorize and behead those who believe in scriptures other than the Koran. Koran 8​:​60 Muslims must muster all weapons to terrorize the infidels. Koran 865 the unbelievers are stupid, urge the Muslims to fight them. Koran 9:5 when opportunity arises kill the infidels wherever you catch them. Koran 9:30 the Jews and Christians are perverts fight them. Koran 9 ​:​123 make war on the infidels living in your neighborhood. Koran 2​​2:19 punish the unbelievers with garments of fire, hooked iron rods, boiling water, melt their skins and bellies.

            Then why do some places institute prison for defaming Muhammad? He is just a man, after all. Also, why is the affirmation of faith, " there is one God-- Allah, and Muhammad is His prophet..." if Jesus is the greatest of the prophets, and why are Christians persecuted under Muslim government? I'm just asking, and of course, paraphrasing the affirmation of faith.

          Massacre at Béziers - Wikipedia

          https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Massacre_at_Béziers

          The Massacre at Béziers refers to the slaughter of the inhabitants during the sack of Béziers, an event that took place on 22 July 1209, and was the first major military action of the Albigensian Crusade.

          2.1 "Kill them all, God will know His own".

          When they discovered, from the admissions of some of them, that there were Catholics mingled with the heretics they said to the abbot “Sir, what shall we do, for we cannot distinguish between the faithful and the heretics.” The abbot, like the others, was afraid that many, in fear of death, would pretend to be Catholics, and after their departure, would return to their heresy, and is said to have replied “Caedite eos. Novit enim Dominus qui sunt eius - Kill them all for the Lord knoweth them that are His” (2 Tim. ii. 19) and so countless number in that town were slain.

            @ Doug Barron, The statement was based on the fact that National Socialists were nominally Christian, in a predominantly Christian country. TRUE Followers of Yeshua would not have been involved in the camps, but people don't necessarily follow the exact teachings of the founder of their faith, but rather the words of those in the pulpit. And remember that anti-Semitism did not start with NDSAP, but goes back to the Roman era, after the standoff at Masada.

          Lea Weis, I'm not the Catholic Church's apologist or their biggest fan, either, and I assume with the last name of Weis that you are Jewish or of Jewish descent, but fair is fair. Pius XII, who was Pope during the Nazi regime, couldn't have said or done very much against the Nazis without inciting and egging them on to even more attacks on Jews and others. The Dutch bishops complained about the Nazis' treatment of Jews in Holland and all that it did was infuriate them and make them round up more Jews for the concentration camps!! So, the Pope had to be careful what he said against the Nazis. He did hide Jews from the Nazis on Vatican territory. The Concordat with Hitler was to protect German Catholics and still Catholics were sent to concentration camps and killed, too, because Hitler didn't stick to agreements if he didn't want to or could get an advantage for himself by not doing so. So, let's give credit where credit is due, for whatever the Pope was able to do for Jews and others while dealing with a madman and his followers.

As for censoring free speech trump was the one who said that the press was the enemy of the people so who again is the one doing the censoring?

            The kids shooting up the schools are not from conservative homes. They are the children of liberals or products of social programs and broken homes. Skin color has nothing to do with it. Trump did NOT say free speech is the enemy. A lying liberal media IS the enemy.

            If you rationally examine prison populations, you will doubtless find that most criminals are from the left, and most come from broken homes which are broken because of liberal philosophy and behavior.

        To whom it may concern, "Nazism is also liberalism" only to those who want to scapegoat liberals and liberalism for everything wrong in the world and that they don't like and not take any responsibility for their own actions and those of other conservatives. Nazism and Liberalism could hardly be synonymous terms when outright Nazis oppose gay rights and marriage, democracy, equal pay for women for the same job and equal justice under the law, interracial marriage, and everything else that liberals are for. On the other hand, conservatives agree. with Nazis on many issues, even though they can't be as blatant about it and go as far as the Nazis did. So, quite obviously, conservatives are far closer to being actual Nazis than any liberals are.

    What if some students on the bus organize their own prayer group and pray during the bus ride? That is their right, so long as no one in authority is imposing it on them and so long as it is not disruptive and does not create any hazardous distraction. Persons in authority in the school system may not impose prayer, choose the prayer, conduct the prayer. A bus driver is given a certain amount of authority, and represents the school system.

      Being politically correct in this situation means the bus driver does not have the right to try and convert his captive audience. While the First Amendment applies only to the federal level, in that the federal government cannot show preference to one particular religion, cannot establish a religion or prohibit the free exercise of a religion, public schools are run at a state level. And while the state level does not have any prohibition against religion as such that doesn't make forced conversion appropriate.

      I do find it interesting that it's considered Politically Correct to ensure the rights of everyone and not just one group of people. It's pretty telling in the mindset of those who cry about everyone being 'PC'.

        PC is a term used by people who want to be rude, impolite and harassing without judgement. They are people who wish to toss common respect and decency out the door in the name of the 1St. amendment (which is only for them) and claiming that being pc is somehow evil and redundant.

    Of course it would be okay if (some of) the children on the bus wanted to organize their own prayer group or religious studies group on the bus.. That is STUDENT LED school prayer, not STAFF LED school prayer. Although he says he didn't force any children to pray, his position of authority would lead them to conclude it was not their choice. Staff consists of more than teachers and principals.

    Consider how you might feel if there were a bus driver asking the children to pray to Allah or Kali with him, which you consider contrary to the religion you have taught them to practice. After all, the driver has his freedom of religion, and you can't be sure that ALL drivers will be Christian.

    (I cannot resist throwing cream pies sometimes :) ) Perhaps this need to pray on a school bus is testimony to the driver's competence driving the bus. (GDR)

    Your stating forced prayer to only one belief a White Jesus .... no way in hell is this OK . Any single person can pray quietly without muttering a single word . So that’s BS thinking to state Prayer is needed in a forced manner . How bout Parents decide at home to pray emote leaning for school ..... oh that’s right Parents want to pass blame off for their lazy approach to parenting . Wake up people no public school needs this it’s government forced bran washing . There is a plafria of beliefs in public children students not one chosen government ideal . They simply want full control of 10% of your income now and in the future , this assures pastors of certain religious zealots a rich over the top lifestyle at the cost of the poor based of false fear . By the Way that Jesus you pray to is Not white .... Jesus loves allll the little children Red Yellow Black and last of all European whites . Your modern American Jesus is a false Christ image taken from a 14th century kings son whom wanted his son worshiped . Look it up people . If you truly believe in Christ stop using your White supremest Jesus ..... that’s the Jesus our current evangelical thugs want to push off in public school children . I Jesus open to hate and slavery of non whites . Sorry folks that’s what you believe in ? I’ve herd it over and over recently Jesus stated it’s ok to own slaves ....... that’s coming from a Trump supporters . If there is a hell your well on your own way . Jesus Christ also never ever spoke against homosexuals even not once . I here ohhhh but the Old Testament states your not to lay with the same sex that text is the very text Jesus canceled with the New Testament . Now stop forcing your ignorant hatred upon innocent children let them investigate history on their own . You can’t findthat in most evangelical churches they want complete control of all written transcripts that’s referred to as a Cultic mentality ...... Pastor Brenten Stevens

      Pastor Stevens, absolutely! It has always amazed me that some Christian people do not honor Jesus; heritage and just about every painting, nativity scene, depict him as white, pretty shocking and revealing. During a recent conversation with an active duty soldier who is of the Mormon faith, he told me he thought Jesus was white. When he asked me to tell him what I thought, I had to break it to him that Jesus reportedly came from what is known as the Middle East. He had to think about that for a minute. I suggested that he remember what the Afghans and Iraqis look like since he had recently returned from 2 deployments to both countries. It helped him understand how close he was (in Afghanistan and remote areas of Iraq) to the Life Ways of Jesus. Many women still wear burkas as they did in Jesus time.

        He wasn't black, but he WOULD have been dark-skinned, simply from solar exposure. Even today, those in the Levant are classed as Caucasian (white), although they are dark-skinned. That's right, MOST people considered Muslim are White. Skin colour is affected by genetics and exposure. The further north you go, the less solar exposure there is, and the more sunlight you need to absorb through your skin, to keep you healthy, so there is less melatonin in your skin and hair. Someone from Scandinavia who moved to the Levant would either get more melatonin in their skin (tanning) or die from fluid loss (sunburn drains fluids from the body, via the blisters).

        Pastor Stevens never wrote that Jesus was Black, just not white. How do you know your husband has no Black, did you have a full DNA test and it shows that? He may be Jewish, but his family history has few ties to the Middle East. Your ignorance is unbelievable to me.

      Idiotic Christians only refer to the old testament when they can't find something to justify their hatred in the New Testament. That's probably the only reason why the old testament is included in the christian bible. Fortunately not all Christians do that. Many of them only believe in the new testament, or at least their personal interpretations of it, which are also often quite distorted. Personally, I'm not against Christians, but think their whole religion sucks.

        I don't mind Christians as long as they don't act that way in public. Some of my closest friends and relatives are Christians, but are also good people who keep their evil christian beliefs to themselves. Anyone who preaches that evil religion to children should be crucified. If they are going to be allowed to preach religion to children they should teach them about all religions so they'll have a choice. No religion is better than any other one. It just depends on individual choice and beliefs. When Christianity is being taught Satanism should be taught too. At least it's self-divulgent, and there's nothing wrong with that.

Most people don't practice what they preach. Part of that rests on the church for being stagnent, just word's of praise.

    Not a single person alive knows which religion is right. A great many of us seek meaning for this existence and may find comfort in a certain belief system. There's strong element of hope in "faith", and who can find fault with that?

    It would be fine if religions merely met the spiritual needs of their own adherents and provided guidelines for what they define as "good" living. It's when they instead focus so intently upon teaching that others are "wrong", "sinful", etc., and emphasize the need to proselytize that conflicts can arise.

    I could not care less what others believe. If you bring your message to my doorstep, I will politely tell you that faith - or the lack thereof - is a personal matter and a subject I don't discuss with anyone.

    It says Mark 10:14 When Jesus saw this, he was indignant. He said to them, “Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these. But the verse says let the children come to me it does not say push the little children to me and don't stop. I understand his desire to witness to the children but simply telling them about Christ one time should be enough and then he needs to suffer whatever consequences he gets from doing that with joy and thanksgiving Matthew 5:11 Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you, and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of Me. All to often we are all to eager to take our rights to court or the government but that is not what Christ teaches us to do in order to reach others. IF you truly want to reach others for Christ and live the kind of life they did go back to basics and study the bible especially the gospels.

    When I was in public schools in Pittsburgh, the students were forced to pray - ten verses from the King James Bible followed by the Lord's Prayer and the "under God" Pledge. I was Jewish and an English citizen, but I was forced to read the verses and say the words. But they couldn't force me to believe them - and I didn't. My mother went to an English school where there were obligatory prayers. However, children who were not Church of England were permitted to gather in separate groups to pray according to their own faiths.

  1. Rev. EVJ (Emilio Velez Jr.)'s Avatar Rev. EVJ (Emilio Velez Jr.)

    LOVE IS THE ANSWER Every day more and more I come to realize that religion does nothing but divide people. Everyone claims to be the truth and criticizes and condemns all the others. Everyone believes that God loves them more than all the others because of the way they worship. If this is the way you believe then you violate everything God stands for. God is not a God of division but a God of unity. As I study the teachings of the Bible, and by the way I lean more toward the teachings of the Bible because this is what I grew up with and what I know best. Today however, I accept without a shadow of a doubt that all teachings of spiritual awareness throughout the world combined point a path to truth. With that said, the teachings of the Bible are not about religion but of a way of life. The teaching of Jesus himself was about who we are, how we function, why we find ourselves in the conditions we find ourselves in and what do we need to do in order to change those conditions. Throughout my life, I’ve been told that in order to change these conditions I need to “Repent”. Well, according to Webster's dictionary the word repent is defined “To think again; to think differently; to change your mind”. So today I understand that in order to change my life I need to change the way I think. That be changing the way I think I will alter the outcome of my life. Throughout the entire Bible we are told about this reality. In the book of Proverbs we read that “As a man thinks in his heart so is he” and it continues to emphasize this reality throughout the entire scripture. So once again I share with you the words of a beautiful song: There is One Power invisible, yet we see it everywhere and every day. One Power indescribable, yet we speak of it with every word we say. It’s mysterious until we know the truth, and it’s as simple as the Love inside of you. We speak so many languages, wear different clothing, different colors, different names. The difference is only dangerous when we forget that in the heart we are all the same. But we will remember once we close our eyes to see, that those distances were never meant to be. Call it God, call it Spirit, call it Jesus, call it Lord, call it Buddha, Baha’u’llah, Angels Wings or Heavens Door. It’s Muhammad, it’s you Mind, it’s your Soul or it’s your Sign, it’s the Universe, it’s Music, Mother Earth or Father Time. But whatever name you give it, it’s just One Power can’t you see, whatever name you give it, it’s the very Air we breathe and it’s the Power of the Love that resides in You and Me. One Power. Out of all the gifts we have been blessed with there are three that remain (the three most powerful gifts of all) Faith, Hope, and Love. But the greatest of these three is Love. Imagine what the world would be like if we all practiced the gift of “Love”.

    In directly addressing the main issue in this article, it's always good to use "tact" in sharing your faith as well as wisdom if you want to keep your job. In responding to all the various comments on this long thread, I can say that all of the religions of the world have some good things to say. You can probably learn something valuable from any of them. The ONE difference that distinctly sets Christianity apart from all the rest is Jesus dying on the cross and being resurrected three days later.

    Moral instruction is valuable, but and having a genuine relationship with Jesus is what changes a person’s heart.

    We are ambassadors of another kingdom. Many people say that REALITY is staying within the social norms and not rocking the boat... but if we never risk stepping out, we will never “walk on water” ... Gently asking questions, valuing other people’s viewpoints, listening, these are how we promote heaven’s kingdom. It is the clearest REALITY to me. (Humbly stated).

    We as a Country forbid Bibles in schools, but freely allow them in Prisons. Hmmmmmm

    Bibles seem to be needed up front not once a person is locked up. If ya simply follow what the Bible teaches you find there would be fewer people in prison!

    If society changes, and we end up being shackled FOR our beliefs then I still choose Christianity OVER AMERICA’s post-Christian era progressive thinking.

    Hello, just a correction on the original article. There is no such thing as a "separation of church & state" clause or mention in the constitution. This notion is a myth.

    The phrase "separation of church & state" was written in a letter to the sitting President by the leader of the Southern Baptist Convention because he wanted to ensure the federal government wasn't going to create a "state church", like the Church of England.

    So, the origin of this phrase was an effort to keep the state out of the business of forcing people into a particular form of Christianity. The origin was not intended to stop people who work for the federal government from expressing their religious freedom.

    Over the years the courts have ruled that public employees have to avoid making an unreasonable influence to their constituents toward any particular religion.

    Based on that case law.... if the bus driver is perceived as unreasonably encouraging his religion on the students he's doing wrong. He just needs to find another job that is in the private sector if he wants to do that.

    But let's be clear, if the bus driver is just expressing his religious preference through his dress, jewelry, speech, etc. he's not doing wrong, even in the public sector.
