He just keeps praying and praying and praying
Football Coach Don Wolan, who is also a pastor at Downriver Christian Community Church in Michigan, has refused to stop praying with his team before each game, in spite of an American Civil Liberties Union threat to sue. "Most people don't give it a second thought until the ACLU or one of those groups makes a big deal out of it," Wolan said. But the ACLU sees it differently, saying that Wolan is in violation of the Supreme Court's Santa Fe Independent School District v. Doe ruling, and that his actions could have serious consequences for the school district if it allows him to continue to coach and pray.
