Legal or not..This is what it means to me in a nutshell..
I went to school in the 60s and 70s..While I did not grow up with a church going family..Everyday after roll call in school..
We recited the lord's prayer,the pledge of alligence and the national anthem..Not on fridays..Everyday!!
I can still recite all three..The next time you are at a sporting event with your hat off your head and your hand on your heart while the anthem is being played..take a look around and see who is standing at attention and who is just killing time..
Before ball games we would say a prayer and I would hate for that to fall to the waist side because a few are offended..What next? stop with the national anthem..Hey!! We don't want to offend anyone..
I have been to church's and gatherings where their god was not my god..Was I offended? No..I put my head down out of respect for others..That's what you do..
How many today can recite the pledge of alligence?
I guess I am just old fashioned that way or maybe still have some moral fiber
