\"Under God, Indivisible . . . . \"
Looks like "under god" stays in the pledge of allegiance.
Congress adopted the pledge as a national patriotic tribute in 1942, at the height of World War II. Congress added the phrase "under God" more than a decade later, in 1954, when the world had moved from hot war to cold. Supporters of the new wording said it would set the United States apart from godless communism. Perhaps we should change it to "under our god," to set the United States apart from the bad god its current enemies worship. |
