enough is enough...if church and state are to not be involved lets just get rid of the UNDER GOD and take out god related things on money. It wouldn't bother me personally anyway what they do it. But to stop wasteing time and money of our government just get it done now. Who are these people that take such unimportant things and make them into a 7 month long dispute. Are we all just so botherd by it we can't stand it anymore? I am in highschool now and I never say the pledge I don't see the sense in it.. Its a flag not a shrine. now Education and religion should not be involved..its like mixing water and oil it doesn't...religion is about fairy tales that never happened and is ultimatly a lie Education on the other hand teaches the real and true. now about how prayers in school wouldn't stop crap. Just because way back when u were school u didn't have school shootings and drugs etc. Doesn't mean it was beacause of prayers. I wouldn't doubt if just as many if not more religious people commit crimes as athesists. Religion is not a factor as it once was since the people with sense shot that birdy down. Thousands of people died beacuse of fighting over religion. So how would that help in schools? School shootings happen because of poor parenting and the media. I don't see how takin out UNDER GOD would offened religious people anyways. If anything I think they would want it since it shows were a religious neutral country. Bush = how my school has less money and a higher level of education for which we must now reach. And Bush even lied about how his plan worked so good in his state.. yeah they had a hudge amount of drop outs but lied on the books so it seemed so perfact. oh yes the toothfairy is very real =p
