I wanted to see what people think of this article. I honestly don't know what to say. I mean really? Compromising on the Pledge of Allegiance? There shouldn't be a compromise. Any government facility whether local, state, or federal should always open with the Pledge of Allegiance. It's appalling to listen to what some of the councilmen said, such as the one that said that "the Pledge of Allegiance had no place at City Hall". What is the world coming to? This is political correctness run amok.

"I pledge allegiance, to the flag, of the United States of America. And to the Republic, for which it stands, One nation, under God, indivisible, with Liberty, and Justice, for all."
You don't like the words "Under God," then don't ******** say "Under God." Jackasses. You know what other pledge/oath I believe in?
"I, Nicholas Hurst, do solemnly swear that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; and that I will obey the orders of the President of the United States and the orders of the officers appointed over me, according to regulations and the Uniform Code of Military Justice. So help me God."
Another statement that has "God" in it. Don't like it? Same thing: Don't ******** say "So help me God."

The US is a nation founded on religious freedom. I think that to make or even encourage people to say that the US is a nation "under god", regardless of their beliefs is unamerican.
I strongly believe that "under god" should just be removed from the pledge altogether. As the article states, it wasn't even a part of the original pledge, it was added in 1954.

They seem like a bunch of loonies. Just leave out the offending part if it's so bad - how hard is that?

Prince Ikari Shilberu Erikku Maybe we should just not have at all (you only really say it in grade school anyways sweatdrop ) why is "un-american" always used in a negative connotation? that is true censorship. Labeling the opinions of others "un-american" and then tossing them aside because it doesn't fit with the patriotic narrative....

The words "Under god" should be taken out, they were put in in one of America's least constitutional times, the Cold war, in which we put the term "Under god" in as a way to stick it to them damned atheist commies.
