With all the various threads going on now, I would like to start one central thread for us to say if we've had opinions published about the pledge ruckus.

I've had two letters published.

<a href="http://www.onlineathens.com/stories/070102/let_letter4.shtml" target="_blank">Ruling against pledge's 'under God' is good for America</a>

<a href="http://www.onlineathens.com/stories/070302/let_cartwright.shtml" target="_blank">Ruling protects non-believers from pledge's religious message</a>

I've had some comments.

An anomyous good ole boy left an extremely stupid message on my machine.
My mom's maid was upset.
A family friend said that the first one was a good letter.

So far no responses to my letter were published in the paper.

How about the other infidels?

Great letters, Rvfvs! I found this paragraph especially delicious.

Dr. Newdow did not bring this case because he wants to keep God out of his daughter's life, but because he doesn't feel that the government should be the one putting God there, and the courts agree with him. Dr. Newdow is completely within his obligation as a good parent to fight government policies that adversely affect him, his daughter, and others like them. There is no better time than the present to fight injustice. Reed A. Cartwright
