Pledge of Allegiance

Here is the view of a former teacher who sees the Pledge of Allegiance much as I do.

I acknowledged earlier that I have not recited the Pledge since 1990, and nothing since then has persuaded me to change my mind. One change since that post was written: I have remained seated while the Pledge is recited, but out of respect for the opinions of others, I try to sit near the back of the room.
