Re: student reprimanded for modification of pledge.......

There is nothing in the Constitution that demands a separation of church and state. The First Amendment has applies to the Congress, the federal government, not the State governments. State governments have a right to create a state church. The Founding Fathers didn't want Congress to establish a national church. They did not intend to forbid every little activity on government property.
