How about removing "under god" which I've heard was only added in the 50's? Even if it wasn't, that seems like the more logical answer, as including it in the pledge and keeping the pledge out of schools doesn't actually separate the church and state.
That's the proper conclusion, but it is not a stop the courts can take, as I understand it. They rule (correctly and much too late IMHO) that the pledge, as is, is unconstitutional. Then it would be up to the legislature to correct it, by hopefully removing the last phrase added 50 years ago. The next target, I suspect is money. I would be interested to know, when our current design (not counting the latest modifications) of our currency was created. I have a feeling it is not as old as many may think. -------------- Ian Skinner Web Programmer BloodSource www.BloodSource.org Sacramento, CA "C code. C code run. Run code run.
