Wow, you really missed my point. I'm not talking about what I believe to be God, the God of Abraham, the Father of Jesus Christ. I'm talking about what effect our Government should have on what I, and you, and everyone else believe. That's great that you're an atheist. No, aren’t you glad you don’t live in 1200 AD Europe? You would be killed for things of this sort.

I don't understand your question Lennon
why would I want our government to have an effect on what I believe in
I just want them to carry out the Constitution
I don't need the government to pray lol
Love Palo

I'm talking about what effect our Government should have on what I, and you, and everyone else believe. And the answer of course.. is NONE.
Which is why all of these rants regarding the Pledge of Allegiance miss the true point of the issue.
The issue isn't the Pledge. It is compulsory funded government education factories, which are inherently socialistic entities, which force people to pay for the advancement of ideas they may not share or approve of.
Get government out of the school business, and allow people to keep their own money, and purchase the education that THEY desire for their own children.
Do this, and the pledge issue (and countless other sources of animosity and strife over control) become irrelevant.
