'Under God' - Pledge Debate rises again

[TheDude]

I really don't have a problem with leaving it in the pledge. I believe it isn't harmful.

Would a good compromise be to simply make it a lower case "g" thereby removing the objection for all except athiests. If 86% believe in some "god", what's the problem?

The funniest part is how the religious right acts like the armagedon with commence if it is removed. In reality, it's a trivial debate.

"DID YOU KNOW?
The very first Supreme Court Justice, John Jay, said:

"Americans should select and prefer Christians as their rulers."

That was my favorite one of all.... How biased and un-american is that statement. Just another extremist wrecking havoc on others.

Barry, honestly I don't think I've ever even heard of a 'good' compromise.

There will never be a good compromise satisfactory to all parties on this issue!!!
