Do you live here.....

Do you live in the United States today? Someone posted the Pledge of Allegiance on my Facebook Page today. Within it, It says that a lot of schools won't say it anymore as it might offend someone.

Seriously people. We send people out to war and others get upset. We send our children to foreign countries to gain cultural experiences but yet... We can't practice our own culture without "someone being offended" By pledging to the flag it not only is a cultural show of pride in our country but it also shows we support it, live it, love it. How do you think for one second a soldier in Iraq feels when he hears "MEH! we don't say the pledge in our schools anymore for the simple reason that it might offend someone."

The fact is this....the percentage of people that believe in our country has fallen.... Why? Dumb Decisions at the voting box or "Lack" of a good candidate (I say that as I didn't want to vote in the last election)

HOLD ON! Now if you want to dispute the one nation under God line.... Let me show you this....
1) If you are Jewish, You believe in God
2) If you are any wing of the 1000's of christians.... You believe in God
3) If you are agnostic... You8 believe the possibility of God
4) If you are one of the few Athiests in the room (which is said to be 3% of the religious Population before High School.... (box your ears or simply bow out and not say it or say that line)
5) If you are a person who just doesn't know. Say it out of respect that this is what your freedom was based on.

for the .0009 percent not mentioned. Your probably offended. Get over it. Don't think for one second Osama Bin Ladens people have stopped pledging their cause so don't ask me to stop mine.
