it _might_ be insulting (to people with no or other belief)


First of all, I'm not interested in protecting the people I *might* offend.
That's the issue I have with the modern environment of political correctness
run amok. It's not about the intent to offend, but the perception of
offense - and everybody's offended by something.

and why has to start every day in school with the Pledge of
Allegiance? (one nation UNDER GOD [!])


Why doesn't a frog have wings? For that matter, why does the Pledge have to
be repeated? Isn't a single pledge enough?

See above. If people stopped *being* offended, everybody would get along so
much better. There are far bigger issues to deal with around here than
having "Allah" or "God" or "Buddha" printed on my money.
