The Federal Court said nothing about you being prohibited from
saying whatever you want in the Pledge of Allegiance, or for that
matter from praying, in school or wherever you want. What is
forbidden, as it should have been long ago, is for the school to
tell you to say "under God" in the pledge, or to tell you to pray.
Freedom of religion: you can practice your religion any way or
anywhere you want (as long as you don't violate the rights of
others), and the government (including public schools) cannot tell
you how to or how not to practice it.
I think it's a great idea. I can't understand why anybody is
against it.
