They're not letting it go--churches sue Governor Kelly

5. Equivalent to the argument of public schools denying children the right to pray.

It's recasting the situation where little Johnny CAN pray any time he wants during the school day -- to himself and privately. Little Johnny can't stop the class and make the class pray with him. Little Johnny's teacher can't lead prayer in class. And to some, the latter is the reason behind their protests. If they can't have their fundamental right to pray THEIR WAY, they're being persecuted.

But they're insisting on practicing their brand of religion without restrictions, which can result in not only their mortality, but their families' mortality, and the rest of their community and beyond.
