If you decide to turn your religious beliefs into a threat to american principles, no one can stop you from doing that.but again, whe get to determin what is and is not a threat? Respecting an establishment of religion (not a religious establishment, or a religious belief.....you can ardently believe that sacrificing a maiden to your bloodthristy god every thursday in a holy building is righteous and true and it will -still- be illegal to do so.)...drich. Allowing one particular religion...say -your- religion, to abuse the liberties of others..in short, to be a threat, would be seen, rightly, as the establishment of religion by government. You are arguing -against- that clause, in that amendment...not for it, or protected by it... by insisting that the government cannot lawfully craft pieces of legislation to prevent you from getting a free pass on the grounds of your belief. They are -required- by that amendment, to do so, if you insist upon making it an issue, if you insist upon your right to -be- that threat on religious grounds. Believe -all- the bigoty shit you want...Drich. No one can stop you, it isn;t illegal. Don't -act- on that bigoty shit in illegal ways. How fucking hard can that be?
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

I need to know I can count on you as an american first in the here and now. The first amendment guaranty's the free practice of religion sport, not freedom from religion. Meaning if the law makes of 1960 decided to incorporate an declaration of alliance to God they were free to do so. Let look at the wording again: to the United States Constitution prohibits the making of any law respecting an establishment of religion, to the United States Constitution prohibits the making of any law respecting an establishment of religion, impeding the free exercise of religion, So again congress can not pass a law that makes any one religion a state sanctioned religion. That said (and history points out) nothing prevents members of government can't personally endorse what they believe. Which is also protected by the second sentence of the first amendment. to the United States Constitution prohibits the making of any law respecting an establishment of religion, "impeding the free exercise of religion," To prohibit, a formal deceleration of allegiance to God is again impeding the free exercise of religion.

Especially at court. ahh, no. to the United States Constitution prohibits the making of any law respecting an establishment of religion, impeding the free exercise of religion, How is restricting the formal declaration of God and country not an impediment of the free exercise of religion? Are you not petitioning congress to restrict how the practice of Christianity goes down, by mandating the removal of God in the pledge?
Ahahahahahahaha

Here is a relatively old article where an unarmed white man was shot by police: One of my buddies is an Iraq War vet (as in, he led one of the squads going door-to-door to secure individual houses), and he's talked about this very thing. The military has very clear rules of engagement. The restrictions on cops aren't nearly as restrictive. We're militarizing our police forces, but not giving them the training to go along with it. And we're seeing the fallout in our streets.

The most defining characteristic of the US constitution, what makes a unique document is the idea it introduces that the state should be secular and that no religion should influence the way the state does business. Every country prior to this date (including the US under the articles of confederation) tied itself to a particular idea of the "divine". So then you'd be perfectly fine with replacing the word "god" with Allah on our money and in the taking of oaths for public offices and for testifying in court, right?
