What is it with atheists getting in a snit because everyone doesn't agree with them? If the don't want to believe in anything, fine, just leave me and my beliefs ALONE...it's none of their business.
We’d better keep it there, or the Muslims will kick our butts.
Where’s the picture of the guy banging his forehead, saying, “aww, not this s*** again”???
If they are so frickin offended, they can take their kids out of the school.
Liberals tell us that we can homeschool or take our kids out of school if we don’t like things such as sex education curricula. So why can’t we tell these parents, you don’t like it, take your kids out of the school???? Does it work both ways?????
Or do liberals get an unlimited number of do-overs?
Such superstitious people. Someone should tell them WORD MAGIC DOESN’T EXIST. Their kids can hear “GOD” and their schmengies won’t fall off.
Are you being “discriminated against” because gravity makes your fat sag?
Who you gonna sue about that?
Sorry dears, the courts can’t shield you from reality.
My guard goes up when somebody feels it is important for me to believe the same way they do.
The couple is upset about the phrase "under God."
Maybe they could just go throw their goatsmellin' @$$e$ off of a bridge somewhere and brighten everybody's day.
I thought this was settled under Elk Grove Unified School District v. Newdow case.
These people need to get a life. If this is so unendurable, they can withdraw the kid from public school. They can also have him not say “under God”. But it’s no great imposition to have to listen to those two words spoken every once in awhile. He’ll hear much worse invocations of the Deity on the playground.
This is certainly not forcing their kids to change their beliefs about anything...they can still choose to just not believe in God.
If these parents are successful(doubtful)then a lawsuit should be immediately filed for discriminating against those kids who do believe the nation is "under God"

“Wouldn’t it be a pity if someone sad that was a prayer and was eliminated from schools too.”
Now why is it that they “have standing” to sue about anything they don’t like, but conservatives never seem to have standing?
“The daily recitation in public schools of a pledge declaring that the nation is ‘under God’ is discriminatory toward atheists and humanists”...
To bad, who cares about you? Majority rules. Deal with it!
We have a right to acknowledge God whether or not they want to. They don’t have to say it but they can’t stop us from saying it. Their “right” ends where my right begins. And I have the freedom to acknowledge my creator and I have free speech rights to state it.
I read that Madelin Murray O’Hare did that way back, or tried to, or was that for something else?

Atheists can go back into the closet. Along with their fellow humanists. I don't see why they have so much faith in humans, anyway. Another Light That Failed.
Aw jeez, here we go again.
“The daily recitation in public schools of a pledge declaring that the nation is ‘under God’ is discriminatory toward atheists and humanists,”
No it is not.
You are free to believe you are not going to hell. At least until your arrival that is.........
