FOXNews.com - Views - Tongue Tied - Substitute Pledge, Bible Ban, Cupcake Cop: "A substitute principal at a middle school in Colorado has a new Pledge of Allegiance that she shared with students, one that is more inclusive and won't cross that line between church and state, according to the Denver Post.
During the morning pledge at Everitt Middle School in Wheat Ridge, eighth-grade counselor Margo Lucero, who was filling in for an absent principal, changed a portion of the pledge from 'one nation under God' to 'one nation under your belief system,' while on the school public-address system.
Lucero says she meant well.
'I said that because I believe that there should be separation between church and school,' she said. 'I believe that everybody should have their own beliefs and that we shouldn't have to say, 'under God.''"
