They should close all the mosques in the country ... because mosques make me, you know, uncomfortable.

Honorable people learn to pass through discomfort honorably and without dishonoring others.

Is it possible to pledge allegiance to a nation and simultaneously be clear that you worship only God?

Yes.

Citizenship in Israel did not disqualify one as a believer in God. Also, Romans 13 affirms support of good nations with good citizenship.

...or just not attend the service in the first place. What kind of an individual attends a service in honor of veterans an opposes saying the pledge of allegiance.

{”because mosques make me, you know, uncomfortable.”}

Yes, and I get very very uncomfortable when I see a woman with headgear on.

This is my stupid school. I can’t tell you how absolutely pissed off I am. I came to a “Christian” school hoping to escape this crap. I knew I should’ve gone to Hillsdale or Liberty. Now I’m stuck here with Godless wishy-washy morons.

“Oh,, my God can’t have someone being uncomfortable.”

Of course we could take the approach if they aren’t comfortable they shouldn’t attend or should leave the country.

....... This is just the simple behavior modification and reinforcement of indoctrination and propaganda into our future citizenry and leaders ......

..... Nothing to see here folks ..... just the non-violent takeover of America.

Many of the students and alumni here are outraged. People are already pulling their donations to the school.

Simple, don’t attend, they will get the message— maybe, liberals have a blinder in their hearts and minds.

This whole separation of church and state horse has been beaten to death for so long, there isn't even a carcass left. I got an idea: if it makes you uncomfortable, DON'T FRICKIN' GO!!!!!!!!

I pray the attendees will stand up at the appropriate moment and recite the pledge on their own.
