            The pledge of allegiance is an oath to God. by BuggedEyes 2003-04-02 12:12:57
As is using any legal tender with "In god we trust", swearing on the bible and multiple other instances.

Separation of Church and State takes away the ambiguity and strife that the opposite causes. It offers a secular and safe envirnment where children can learn about each other's culture and religions under an equal status. Bowing you head, or a moment of silence for the Christian contigent, is in essence saying that they get special treatment. What about the other faiths? I know of a school where the muslim kids have to go to another room when they pray to Mecca. They didn't have a "moment of silence" for them.
