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?
The Team Rocket motto
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.
One’s body is inviolable, subject to one’s own will alone.
… insomuch as doing so doesn’t harm others.

A pledge enumerating the basic human rights of all people.
No flags, no governments, no religion needs a pledge. We need to pledge to be honorable human beings above all else.
It’s a bit long, maybe do one article per day?

i don’t think the government would like that, democrat or Republican

With red or white wine?
Well it does pledge to the republic and to the values of the republic. Which is appropriate for a republic.
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)!
daily affirmations would be nice for the kiddos
Silent meditation.
