Ok, so I heard that the 'Under God' part of the Pledge of Allegiance is going to be taken off.
What do you think? Should it have stayed? Will these be action be done, or will continue to stay in the Pledge of Allegiance? Should the Pledge of Allegiance even contain 'Under God' in it? |

QUOTE(princess2113 @ May 20 2004, 8:43 PM) yes it should...this nation was found under God..n shuld continue to state that in our pledge...we dont force anyone to say anything in there or any of it at all...they can choose not to say if they wish...but those of us who believe we r a seperate nation b/c of Him have a rite to state so in there...and also it never states a specific "god"...it culd either be God...or if u want to interpret it differantly..no1 is throwing u in jail for it...only antheist n sume agnostics have a prob. with it ![]() personally I don't really care...under god...under pudding...under bloomberg...under bush...under clinton...under chocolate...whatever you want. i think of the pledge as poetry...and we need poetic lisence! well...actually i was hoping to quote a post that mentioned that you swear on the bible in court. it's not there...oh well. it's late...i'm tired...I don't quite remember what exactly you say (cause I don't like killing things I do not recall perfectly) but you don't have to swear to the bible. You can say something else. Personally I wouldn't make a big deal of it on the stand...cause it doesn't really make a difference...cause it's just tradition that doesn't really hurt anybody. |
