As the oral argument in the Pledge of Allegiance case begins to fade into memory, here is an interesting column that asks a good question: why do we need a pledge at all? If the atmosphere of the pledge in school is at all coercive, doesn't that go against the ideal of a free society? In other words, if we must be forced to pledge our allegiance to anything, can that thing really be that great?
