More on the pledge Bill Sulik has an excellent discussion on the Establishment clause, and how it has been twisted into it's present interpretation.
To refresh everyone's recollection, the "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion." A review of the Supreme Court's jurisprudence of the past 20 years or so shows that it has built an edifice of case law that is so far askew of the plumb line of the establishment clause that it was bound to collapse, and this could bring it down. A review of the 9th Circuit decision shows that it has been built on those great errors.
He makes a strong case.
