One nation under Allah

"Recently, a student of Justice High School in Fairfax, Virginia, led the graduation ceremony in the Pledge of Allegiance. In this public-school setting, when she got to the part about “one nation under God,” she said, instead, “one nation under Allah.” This was apparently without any permission from school officials." ~ https://www.christianpost.com/

...the OP ed in The Christian Post went on to say: “One nation under God” allows the Muslim, the Buddhist, and the atheist to practice what they wish. “One nation under Allah” restricts the freedom of those who disagree—even fellow Muslims of a slightly different stripe.

"[It] restricts the freedom of those who disagree"?

Thoughts?

It's good to see US Christians getting a taste of their own medicine.

Also, Buddhists don't have a god.

Another one for the "who cares?" category. I thought the Pledge of Allegiance was silly and unnecessary when I was in school, and I still do. They should dispense with it.

Thanks, I'll keep that in mind.

I'll also "feel free" to post on threads for the sake of posting and in order to tell people I'm not interested. 🙂

This is your narcissism in action.
