day in school, children in the American education system have to recite the “Pledge of Allegiance.” No matter how old they are, whether they are in an elementary school or in high school, they are expected to stand and stare at a flag as the Pledge of Allegiance plays. While this one small action seems trivial, there is something odd that appears in it and that is the words “Under God.” Not Allah, not Buddha, not Yahweh, but only God.

people share stories about how finding religion or losing religion has changed their lives and desires completely. Religion has most likely had an effect on everyone’s life from being loved to being discriminated against, or even a personal attitude change.

It would probably be really bland and you would probably look at her funny. What if I told you that Quaker school systems run off of Spices. Ok, maybe not the ones that you cook with
Religion in Public Schools Some schools want to make it seem like religion is worth less than dust. Like the belief of a student is nothing more than the gum stuck to the bottom of a shoe, or a cigarette butt that is thrown on the ground. A lot of schools have teachers that would try and punish a student for being religious, or be harder on a certain student for that very same reason. Nobody should have to hide their religion just because they are at school. It’s no different than being at the movies

his junior year of high school, his childhood was not significant to anyone. However, it is significant to him and how it shaped him. It pushed him to fight for equal rights for African Americans. The inequality he faced as a child has probably pushed him to fight for the changes he has seeked we have today.
