I wouldn’t care. If they’re religious they’ll be following the morals and views of their religion. A little praying won’t change or harm anyone. No different to another group having a chat
Comment on US Politicians praying inside the House of Representatives

We knew you were concern trolling. Thanks for confirming though.

We now know you will just shoot down any alternative opinion and pretend it is trolling. Thanks for confirming.

Most would be fine with it. It’s done often and both parties shit on someone last month for taking issue with it

The reactions to the Satanic Temple using pro-religion laws, and social media posts about public displays of established religions like Muslim prayers, show that most Americans do not approve displays of any religion except their own. With that in mind, the reasonable compromise is that there shouldn't be religious displays inside of state institutions.

So instead of allowing members to pray in the legislature, you want them to go outside? That’s not inclusive of religions either. Not to mention they can call for a vote soon as all those whom are required by their religion to pray were mandated to leave to pray. I’m an atheist, but we need to let religion die on its own. Forcing it out will cause more problems than solutions. 30 years from now it will likely be rare to see it happen. But I’ll still stand by it being their right to practice on their own
