While I respect your point of view. I disagree. If it were just about favoring the majority then, assuming the minority care, why dont we just add an amendment to include all other religions?

To the Pledge? I doubt you can. There's agnostics, there's atheists, and there are probably people who feel it profanes God's name to use it in a secular manner.

And why bother? It was fine the way it was. Leave the Pledge as it was meant to be, and set aside the moment of silence for students to use as they will.

You forget. For some people (a lot of people, judging from the reaction) not mentioning god is exactly the same as outright stating "there is no god". As such, by removing "under god" from the pledge it instantly implies that the pledge is declaring that there exist no gods at all.

I don't understand that logic, but there it is.
