I recently found an artical relation to the battle of the phrase "One Nation, Under God" in the United State's Pledge of Allegiance. Basically what the artical said was this Principal in a Colorado Middle School decided for a ceremony, the students, instead of saying "under god" could say "under you own belief system." (I'm not sure if they said the actual words, or their what god they believed in.) Now, this has made quite a few Christian groups angry, as they say it's too 'politically correct.'

What does everyone in here think about this whole ordeal of 'one nation, under god..' phrase?


I personally think this Principal has the right idea. I mean, you can just replace god (or keep it) to whatever higher power you believe in. This would include the Christian 'God', The Buddhist 'Buddah', and all other diety figures. Though I don't really think it's something to get extremally upset over, as you could just simply not say 'under god.' But hey, why not be polite to everyone and let them say what they believe?
Athiests could just as well not say anything. Pretty simple really.

Thank you for your time
