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.
