I Highly doubt when our officials are put in office they are asked if the acknowledge a supreme being. First of all, the constituancies are very unlikely to elect a open, pronounced atheist, however much good it would do us. And even if the candidates feel they are atheist or agnostic, they would not bring attention to the fact in their campaigns. It's too much trouble. They would not get elected. On top of that it seems like one of those minor rules that has far outlived its pourpose, and would never hold up when challenged. But it would only be challenged if somebody made a big deal of a canidate elect not doing this. Unlikely to say the least. I think that if sombody ever was elected and refused acknowledge the exsitance of a supreme being, it would pass with little comment.
