20. renounce other allegiance??? What is that

I have an allegiance to my church that supersedes my allegiance to a country, does that mean I lose my citizenship?


BTW, congrats to lionesspriyanka :)

[Hissyspit]

22. Oath of Allegience:

Oath of Allegiance

To become a citizen, one must take the oath of allegiance. By doing so, an applicant swears to:

• support the Constitution and obey the laws of the U.S.;
  
• renounce any foreign allegiance and/or foreign title; and
  
• bear arms for the Armed Forces of the U.S. or perform services for the government of the U.S. when required.

In certain instances, where the applicant establishes that he or she is opposed to any type of service in armed forces based on religious teaching or belief, INS will permit these applicants to take a modified oath.

I'm not sure how it works with dual citizenship.

[RB TexLa]

Kind of goes against the 1st amendment.

[La Lioness Priyanka]

"Gott Mit Uns" was the motto of the Nazi SS;
it means "God is with us".

Feel free to steal the design
if you find a good use for it.

I also did one for South Carolina,
as they are pushing a similar law:

If the Republicans didn't know that the most powerful weapon against oppression in all of recorded history was the vote, they wouldn't be trying so hard to take it away from us.
