In the US most students recite “the pledge of allegiance” every morning before school, which is kind of crazy. If you were in charge, what if anything would you replace it with?
Nothing, propaganda pledges don’t have a place in institutions of learning.
This one sounds kinda good:
- One should strive to act with compassion and empathy towards all creatures in accordance with reason.
- The struggle for justice is an ongoing and necessary pursuit that should prevail over laws and institutions.
- One’s body is inviolable, subject to one’s own will alone.
- The freedoms of others should be respected, including the freedom to offend. To willfully and unjustly encroach upon the another is to forgo your own.
- Beliefs should conform to our best scientific understanding of the world. We should take care never to distort scientific facts to fit our beliefs.
- People are fallible. If we make a mistake, we should do our best to rectify it and resolve any harm that may have been caused.
- Every tenet is a guiding principle designed to inspire nobility in action and thought. The spirit of compassion , wisdom, and justice should always prevail over the written or spoken word.
Satanic laugh
Nothing. Just let the kids do their morning uninterrupted.
It’s state law where I live. Fucking crazy.
I would replace it with education. Which is the purpose of schools.
Delete the middle.
“I pledge allegiance to liberty and justice for all”
The Team Rocket motto
No pledge. And “God bless America” should be dropped in favor of “Yippie-Ki-Yay, motherfucker”.
2 minutes of deep breathing to relax and concentrate, repeated through the day.
That’s it, just give everyone a chance to relax and center before getting back to the crazy.

That’s it, makes a big difference when you need it.
I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.
I pledge allegiance to the drag of the United Queens of America.
Gee, I dunno…How about learning something?
Nothing. Maybe a “good morning, do your best, and remember to be kind today”
The I Love Egg song. No shortcuts.
Could even make an entire assembly about it. Every morning, spend five minutes dancing and showing allegiance to the vitamins and minerals in you, and oodles of the proteins too (oodle doodle)!
