Here's another encouraging bit of religious tolerance:
Newdow said that since the ruling he has received death threats, including
one left on his answering machine that said, "You're a dead man walking."
Newdow said he has received a flood of angry calls. The caller
who left the "dead man walking" message on his answering machine
also said, "Somebody's going to kill you --- not me, but somebody will."
from http://www.cnn.com/2002/LAW/06/27/pledge.allegiance/index.html
Whether or not people want to pretend this is not a chuch/state issue, it
has now (if Newdow's claims are true) clearly become a matter of religious
persecution.
And to show that Newdow knows exactly which Goliath he's fighting:
"Every constitutional lawyer I talked to told me, 'There is no question
it is unconstitutional, and there is no question that you will lose,'"
Newdow says.

Michael Newdow, martyr for freedom.
Dave!
