[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]One nation. Under God. Any atheist family here with children who are reluctant to say the pledge of allegiance because of “under God” like mine? A few days after school started, our room teacher reported that DC told classmates “There is no God” during pledge time. We then had a talk about mutual respect between people with and without faith.[/quote] Yep. OP here. My kids don't say that part. And not because I've forbid them, but because they are not comfortable with it. I did the same as a kid (although I made a big deal about it and sat down during the pledge just to make a point -- they haven't done that yet). But that doesn't bother me as much as the sign in the main office. It feels like the institutional authority is implicitly not on your side or something. [/quote]
