This article by Ron Rosenbaum on the pledge of allegiance is a good read, so I thought I'd share it with you folks.

quote:
There is a "pro-God", pro-American argument against putting God in the Pledge, against the worship of a graven image (the flag) that the Pledge requires. If I'm going to pledge allegiance to anything - under God or Vishnu or Whomever - it would be the Bill of Rights.


I would rather pledge allegiance to the Constitution of the United States of America than to a gaudy piece of cloth! The president takes an oath to protect and defend the Constitution, but instead he and his cohorts are doing nothing but trashing it!
