Just when you thought there would a monumental decision… the courts side stepped the main issue and decided on another.
I’ll admit I was disappointed when I first heard the news. But I am happy now that I’ve read a bit more. “Under God” has not been deemed Constitutional. In fact, the Supreme Court didn’t even take a stab at ruling on the question of its placement in the Pledge of Allegiance.
Here’s a nice snippet:
The Rev. Barry W. Lynn, executive director of Americans United for Separation of Church and State, expressed disappointment at today’s ruling. “The justices ducked this constitutional issue today, but it is likely to come back in the future,” he said in an interview with The A.P. “Students should not feel compelled by school officials to subscribe to a particular religious belief in order to show love of country.”
See ya in the future Supreme Court. It’s gonna come back. Bwahahahah!
