Incidentally, you also have a legal right to make the oath and pledge in Welsh (or Gaelic) rather than English

WELSH OATH:
Rwyf (enw) yn tyngu i Dduw Hollalluog, wrth ddod yn ddinesydd Prydeinig, y byddaf yn ffyddlon ac yn wir deyrngar i'w Mawrhydi y Frenhines Elizabeth yr Ail, i'w Hetifeddion a'i Holynwyr, yn ôl y Ddeddf.

WELSH PLEDGE:
Byddaf yn deyrngar i'r Deyrnas Unedig a pharchaf ei hawliau a'i rhydd-didau. Byddaf yn cynnal ei gwerthoedd democrataidd. Byddaf yn ufuddhau i'w chyfreithiau yn ffyddlon ac yn cyflawni fy nyletswyddau a'm rhwymedigaethau fel dinesydd Prydeinig.

(SCOTTISH) GAELIC OATH:
Ann an ainm an Tighearna Dia tha mise (ainm) a' bòideachadh air dhomh bhith seulaichte mar shaoranach Breatannach / gum bi mi da-rìribh dìleas do a Mòrachd Rìoghail an dara ban-rìgh Ealasaid, a h-Oighrean agus a Luchd-ionaid a rèir an lagh.

GAELIC PLEDGE:
Bidh mi dìleas don Rìoghachd Aonaichte agus bheir mi urram do a còirichean agus a saorsan. Cumaidh mi suas a luachan deamocratach. Cumaidh mi a laghan gu dìleas agus coilionaidh mi mo dhleastanasan mar shaoranach Breatannach.

Ok, Ok... Here we go with ParaTed2k's Little Known Pledge of Allegience (ok, anyone who even knows me a little bit won't be at all surprized) ;~D


I pledge allegience to our Father in Heaven and to His Son, Jesus Christ; to my wife and family; to The United States of America. I pledge that I will serve my fellow man whenever and however the call comes to me. I claim the rights and freedoms (and acknowledge and accept the responsibilities) that are inherent to being a human being; I also claim the privilege of worshiping according to the dictates of my own conscience, and allow others the same privilege, let them worship how, where, or what they please.

Reply By: ChakgogkaPosted: Monday, September 19, 2005I come from a nation where there has traditionally been no pledge of this sort. However, it seems that they've now come up with one for new citizens:Oath of allegianceI (name) swear by Almighty God that on becoming a British citizen, I will be faithful and bear true allegiance to Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth the Second, her Heirs and Successors, according to law.(or alternatively) Affirmation of allegianceI (name) do solemnly and sincerely affirm that on becoming a British citizen, I will be faithful and bear true allegiance to Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth the Second, her Heirs and Successors, according to law.After the Oath or affirmation, you will take the Citizenship Pledge:I will give my loyalty to the United Kingdom and respect its rights and freedoms. I will uphold its democratic values. I will observe its laws faithfully and fulfil my duties and obligations as a British citizen.


2 out of 3 leave any mention of God out, and still affirms loyality. good stuff.

Yes. The point being you have a choice to 'swear' (religious oath) or 'affirm'. Exactly the same thing applies in a British court of law where you can "swear by Almighty God that the evidence I will give will be the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth" or simply 'affirm' the same, without a mention of God.

From what I have been able to discover I believe the same applies in US courts. However some sources that I have seen claim that, while this is true in Federal courts, individual State laws make a religious oath in court mandatory in some US States. Is anyone here able to tell me if this is true?

and that's why I feel people saying the pledge here in america should have A CHOICE.

I say take everything out EXCEPT "under God." That says it all, and covers just about everything!

What's the matter, Myrr--you don't like being ignored? Neither do the people who take the time to respond to YOUR threads.

Perhaps MM is just giving you a taste of your own medicine.

Perhaps we all should.
