Why must people continue this backword practice? 
It is so wasteful. Tax dollars are wasted while the justices in the court and the ministers pray to this "great" banana before they go about their daily duties. These people are already back up with work, why waste time with worshiping bananas? Sure we won a war with America and people attribute that victory to the banana's help, but look where we are now! People cry out revolution! Look what our "government" is doing to fix it. Praying to the banana to save everyone! We wouldn't be in this mess if they were more efficient with their time and not waste it on a silly fruit. Normally I wouldn't care and just let people have their religious beliefs, but this hurts others. Look at the consitution. It says nothing about praying to bananas before meetings. This should stop NOW!
