>This is nonsense. The fact is, nobody can make you believe anything you don't want to believe. You don't have to recite the pledge. That is your remedy.

How about if I said you had to go to a mosque everyday, but you didn't have to say a word. Would that be a fair law?

>As a counter argument, why should you, in the minority, be able to push your views on the majority?

My views being what in particular, John? That congress shoudln't make laws that include religious beliefs? I highly doubt I'm in the minority.

>We are a majority ruled country with minority rights. If you don't like it, leave.

I plan on it.

>As opposed to tryanny of the minority through the court system, circumventing the legislative process when it does not suit their needs??

This is not tyranny of the minority. This has jack-all to do with the minority and everything to do with an objective government.
