IanHulett, reciting something by rote is not for the thinking person - regardless of whether you agree with what you are reciting. When you do that, your mouth is moving and words are coming out but they aren't your words. You are an automaton or even worse, a puppet on a string. Pledges are brainwashing, pure and simple.
Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.
