Atheist Group Demands Football Coaches on ‘Last Chance U’ Stop Praying With Players

Here we go again with demands of football coaches to stop praying with their team! Now a report is indicating that One of America’s largest secular legal organizations is pressuring a Mississippi college football coach to end the team’s tradition of praying before and after each practice, suggesting that having coach-led prayer at a public college is unconstitutional.

The East Mississippi Community College football team, which was featured on the 2016 Netflix documentary series “Last Chance U,” has come under fire from the Wisconsin-based Freedom From Religion Foundation, an atheist legal group which claims that the coach is “domineering” and “calls into question whether the players’ participation can be considered voluntary.” CONTINUE
