Failings of the Court

The supreme court has thrown out the case of a man suing over the pledge to the flag because the mother and father of the child are fighting over custody.

The "Under god" clause of the flag pledge seems an even better reason for the aethist father to be allowed to sue: since he is not responsible for rearing the child, he has no control over whether she is brought up believing in a ficticious entity or not and a state sponsored belief in god reinforces such a position. Instead, if the state were to take a position that does not embrace god as the flag pledge does, then the responsibility to instill a sense of religion on the girl would fall only on the mother.

Drugs:
In many arguments about the legalization of drugs, opponents have consistantly brought up that legalization is equal to endorsement. If this is in fact true, "under god" must be struck from any state sponsored flag pledge because it is endorsing one god, presumably the judeo Christian god. if on the other hand, this is not endorsement of god by the state, then drugs must legalized because it doesn't represent an endorsement by the state.
