The Pledge Of Allegiance Case - GoFuckYourself.com

goes before the Supreme Court Today.

The issue is to decide if the reference to God violates church and state.

I say have 2 pledges...one generic makes no references to any deities..the other a fill in the blank deity version..th esimple fact is freedom of speech even protects religious speech ;)
So the teachers should push the secular version, but if a couple of children feel they need to say the other version they should have that option.

NOTE I said the teachers should push and teach the secular version.

The issue I have with all this crap is the financial burden people put on the schools to defend these types of cases...especially in situations the schools know they are wrong.

For instance the whole prayer at football games issue...it has been decided time and time again but I guarantee you, you can go to any football game in West Texas and you'll find a kid praying over the loud speaker at the first of the game.

My whole answer to that situation was...if the Christians want a prayer before football games then they had to share that with other denonimations and religions...once it got to the muslims or wiccans you'd see how quickly they'd give up that prayer...LOL
