There is no such thing as a “Judeo-Christian prayer”. Part of the reason Jewish Americans have historically been such strong advocates for the separation of Church and State is that Jews DO NOT WANT TO BE FORCED TO RECITE CHRISTIAN PRAYERS.

"...in the Sholem Aleichem Institute are: Anarchists, Zionists, Diaspora Nationalists and ordinary radical people. . . . we, like a symphony orchestra, each
play on different instruments but, together, create the synthesis that calls itself the orchestra." -y. finklshteyn, 1930
