The Guide Association will consider dropping the religious element of the 'Promise' made by its 600,000 members, following criticism from a small number of parents.
Since the Guides were launched more than 100 years ago by Robert Baden-Powell, recruits have made a pledge to God.
The current wording states: "I promise that I will do my best, to love my God, to serve the Queen and my country, to help other people and to keep the Guide Law."
Whilst the Promise is optional, only girls who have taken it can be awarded the movement's highest badges.
Do you agree with the decision? Should all similar organisations become secular? Is God relevant to today's children?
