I agree with what you are saying too. I truly don't think that every single person will be happy with anything that is done but I guess it's just the effort to make school as something that everyone is comfortable at, for the sake of learning. It's hard to see my past school experience without the Pledge, but the US is becoming more diverse and the US has always been the land of opportunity that promised no discrimination towards the believes of others, which makes it hard to refuse to try and make people feel more comfortable, because I know if I practiced a religion that wasn't the norm it would be hard to deal with discrimination because it was seem like people would be saying my views are wrong....and I'm not the person so say what people believe is right or wrong.
