That is not what happened. What the court ruled was that the inclusion of the religious words "under God" in the pledge is unconstitutional. No matter what side of the argument to are on the news media should at least get the story right.<BR/><BR/>The pledge ends with the words, "Liberty and Justice for All". The world "All" means everyone including non theist religions, those who are without religion, and those who believe in deities other than the Christian's God. Issues of religion are very divisive and our founding fathers went out of their way to make sure the government was religiously neutral so that everyone is equal and have the freedom to express their beliefs without the government choosing sides. If the words "Under God" are left in then they should take out "Indivisible" and "Liberty and Justice for All" because liberty has no meaning when the government makes religious choices.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13205212.post-1127246467724307892005-09-20T15:01:00.000-05:002005-09-20T15:01:00.000-05:00heres the deal: as citizens of the us we have the...heres the deal: as citizens of the us we have the right to protest and we have the right to refuse to say it.<BR/>EVEN AS STUDENTS!!!<BR/>I on many occasions have refused to recite the pledge or sing the anthem.<BR/><BR/>It's not that I dont believe in God, for if it wasnt for him I would be dead. I believe in having the freedom. <BR/><BR/>I read a report the other day: 80 percent of people believe in a or many god(s)<BR/>more people believe in god than who support the war in Iraq!<BR/>now is that interesting?<BR/><BR/>We should keep it, we have the right as individuals to refuse it but as a general whole we believe in god.<BR/><BR/>I know I probably aint making much sense but this is my mind <BR/>apologies for any confusion in advance<BR/><BR/>Thee U.
