Students shouldn't have to feel worried about whether or not they'll be persecuted if they practice their right to pray. The school would be overstepping its boundaries if it ordered students not to pray, however state-funded schools also cannot force the students to pray. This rule may not apply to private schools, who can support a religion, like Catholic schools. The students should also have the right to assemble in the name of their religion, but no one can force them to go. Teachers shouldn't support religion, however it can be taught. I think that prayer in school is fine and that it cannot be prohibited, but it also cannot be forced upon the students to pray, or read a religious text, or to acknowledge a certain deity or belief. As long as the beliefs of teh student aren’t being infringed upon.

I feel like students should be able to pray on their own accord, with no one forcing them to do it. I believe that once the teachers or faculty force them to pray, that rights are being violated as states by the First Amendment. However, if the faculty states that they cannot pray on school campus and when it doesn't distract other students, then their rights are again being violated. It's all about the student's freedom to pray or not to pray. And students should be given the choice to say "under god" when saying the pledge, or for that matter, saying the pledge at all. The first amendment gives people freedom of and from religion, meaning it can't be forced on anyone, nor can it be taken away from anyone, in any setting, schools included.

In The Prologue, several tones are evident towards each character and their respective category. There are many tones attributed to the clergy classification, many of them vary, due to their different motives. One of the various tones ascribed to clergy is that of greed. The Pardoner is the church official in charge of granting the believers indulgences, forgiveness in exchange for monetary means. This is one of the church's several wrongdoings that caused the Protestant Reformation and it also caused the pilgrims to be displeased with The Pardoner. In the Prologue, The Pardoner preaches several sermons against the very sin he practices; greed.

There are several different religious figures among the pilgrims, some honest and looking out for the church, and some are only concerned with their own pleasure or gain. The monk is more devoted to hunting than he is to God. The Prioress is a nun (who are required to be poor) who has a taste for the finer things in life. The Pardoner represents the financial corruptness of the Catholic church. The Friar in only interested in women or rich men,

The building of the community represents the coming of Middle English and how each group (represented by the characters in that group) have contributed or have taken away from it. Some people sought to build a town suitable for their descendants, whereas some were only out for their personal gain.

The characters introduced in the Canterbury Tales prologue each represent an element of the Medieval Time Period as well as their social status in the feudal system. The writer and the narrator are one in the same, as well as a character in the story. The narrator admires some characters, loathes some, and is indifferent toward some of them.
