It's perfectly easy to grasp. Why can't a teacher have her class pledge allegiance? This pledge has been in use well over 100 years. And the group left out is pagans and atheists? Give me a damn break! I think there's something sick about a philosophy that sees as one of its achievements stopping the pledge of allegiance in school.

Atheists and pagans don't have rights to their beliefs?

The words "under god" were added in the 1950's. The original pledge did not contain them.
