A Barack and McCain...
Quote From: grandmashariMine doesn't either because of his job, but he did say the wedding vows and had he not been willing to do that, he wouldn't be my husband! What about yours? Did he say the vows?
I used the wedding ring as an example showing that it is a show of the vows made. If Obama didn't want to wear the pin, it wouldn't be so bad, but the not wanting to say the pledge is a whole other thing. He wants to be head of our country, he shouldn't have a problem pledging to it. Just like a minister who wants to work for God, shouldn't have a problem with prayer. We repeated what ever the guy who married us told us to, however, neither of us really paid a lot of attention. We already KNEW how we felt about each other and repeating words wasn't going to change anything. We already made our vows long before we got married.
"I used the wedding ring as an example showing that it is a show of the vows made."
And a lot of people wear those rings and make those vows and go on to cheat, abuse, lie and even MURDER their spouses. What Julie and I are saying is those things don't have inherent meaning. The ONLY have meaning when someone puts value into it themselves.
BTW, did you read her research on this pledge thing?
