Exerts from Ted Kennedy's Speech October 3, 1969
"The critics of official prayer in public schools are not "Pharisees"; many of them are both civil libertarians and believers, who think that families should pray more at home with their children, and attend church and synagogue more faithfully."
"There are four tests which draw that line and define the difference.
First, we must respect the integrity of religion itself.
Second, we must respect the independent judgments of conscience.
Third, in applying religious values, we must respect the integrity of public debate.
Fourth, and finally, we must respect the motives of those who exercise their right to disagree."
