RightatNYU said:In a courtroom, someone is called in individually for a legal reason, in the day to day workings of the government. It is not a process by which every single person who enters a courthouse must, each day, be sworn in.
You're right, the pledge is a tradition, WITHOUT under god. That was added in as an attempt to "stem the flow to godless communism." It's unnecessary and frankly, is nothing but trouble.
And yes, they do. In numerous incredibly similar cases, they have already decided in the same way. This should be no different.
So you're only concerned about the rights of the everyday citizen, not about the citizen who, may, or may not, be forced to swear to God?
Makes sense.
