This is where the idea of separation of church and state comes in. Governments and other political agenda groups have no place in God's plans and should not be involved in churches...but that doesn't mean that religion and faith has no place in Government. As to required specific religious observances such as a daily act of worship being carried out in schools...to what are you referring? The Pledge of Allegiance is not an act of worship. That was the only daily required ritual in school while I was growing up.
