Many people often have a cynical view of inmates who are actively involved in religion when in jail or prison (wondering, for example, if the inmate was all that religious why he or she committed a crime?). Incorporating relevant background material, post your comments (100-250 words) on whether religious instruction and practices should be allowed in prison? As space allows, in your own post or in your reply to another post, comment on whether if you allow some religions, won’t you have to allow all of them—including Satanism, Wicca, and others outside the mainstream? Do the benefits of allowing religious instruction and practices outweigh the problems?
