I never met a Christian who wasn't a stupid fucking asshole.

The Pledge of Allegiance to the Flag—"I pledge allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands, one Nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all."

Notice the "one nation under god" bullshit. Actually we are under Canada.

In some public schools, especially in god-soaked states like Texas, students are expected to stand and say the pledge of allegiance. However the right not to be forced to stand for the Pledge has been recognized by the U.S. Supreme Court since 1943.

In Texas a female student refused to participate in the pledge bullshit. The student was harassed by her teacher who of course is a Christian asshole.

This is a copy & paste job:

Houston, Texas—American Atheists filed a federal lawsuit today in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Texas, alleging that a high school senior has been subjected to years of harassment by teachers, administrators, and other students because she opted to not participate in the Pledge of Allegiance. The lawsuit alleges that the student, referred to as “M.O.” in court filings, was repeatedly disciplined by school officials, forced to transfer out of classes, and bullied by other students, despite repeated attempts by her mother, LaShan Arceneaux, to resolve the issue with administrators.

The harassment culminated in an incident in September 2017 in which a teacher again singled out M.O. for her refusal to participate in the Pledge, saying that those who do not participate are “unappreciative and disrespectful” and that “all they do is take from society.” The teacher allegedly compared anyone who refuses to say the Pledge to Soviet communists, members of the Islamic faith seeking to impose Sharia law, and those who condone pedophilia.
