On the same topic, there are people, such as Jehovah's Witness, who don't
believe in things like pledging to the flag. We have several students like
that in the school I teach at. The children simply stand with the rest of the
class, but don't recite the pledge. I don't agree with their beliefs, but I
don't argue with it either. But we don't discontinue the pledge in the entire
class because of it. HP can work the same way, you don't believe it's
appropriate for your child, fine. But don't take it away from all the others
who want to read it.
