A Massachusettes Family Asks a Judge to Remove “Under God” From Pledge of Allegiance
ACTON, Mass. – A family with much apparent hate running through their blood has asked a Massachusetts judge to order a school district to remove the phrase “under God” from the Pledge of Allegiance because they not only hate God, they don’t want others to openly acknowledge Him either.
Interestingly enough, the plaintiffs, who are atheists and call themselves the “Does” to protect their identity, are not citing the establishment clause of the First Amendment in making their case. Instead, they are challenging the Pledge on the basis of the Massachusetts Constitution’s guarantee of “equal protection.” Although they can not prove that the utterance of the words “under God” has damaged their lives or others lives in any way.
The Does insanely argue that schools discriminate against atheist children by taking part in a pledge that makes them feel “marginalized,” the Boston Herald reports. Many are wondering why the “Does” family doesn’t file complaints against countless other things in life they dont agree with that are present in their daily lives. Is this simply a war on God? and attack on Religion? A fight with believers? Many are calling on the Does family to immediately stop using US Currency as it says, “In God We Trust”.
What’s also interesting about these Atheist “Does” family is that they listen to radio and speak on cell phones but have yet to demand proof that radio waves and digital wireless signals actually exist despite the fact that they have never seen them with their eyes, heard them with their ears, smelled them with their noses or felt them on their skin. Divided States would like the “Does” family to immediately stop using such technologies until they are presented with solid proof that such things exist. We acknowledge that we all experience the RESULTS of such technologies in the same way that believers acknowledge that all the things on earth we enjoy are the RESULTS of God’s creation.
Liberal Superior Court Judge Jane Haggerty heard arguments in Doe vs. Acton-Boxborough Regional School District.
In another challenge against saying the Pledge of Allegiance in Brookline Mass., a group called “Brookline Pax” had asked the town to vote in favor of a resolution calling for the school committee to rescind its Pledge of Allegiance policy and stop the Pledge from being recited in the schools.
We all pray that the “Does” family sees God soon so that they will finally believe.
