Default the oxymoron pledge

Offa,

The oxymoron pledge.

One nation under "GOD".

God is Jewish. Jesus would have said, "One nation under the Father".
The Muslim deity is also GOD.

With Liberty and Justice for "All".

"All*" is divisive. "All" represents a Jewish political party. If you
read the bible you will find "All Pharisees" an extended number of
times, but you will never find "All Sadducees" a single time. You will
never find "Many Pharisees". "All" and "Many" are opposing parties.

Now, if you are truly a devout believer (in God, for instance) and
somebody asked you, "Do you believe in God?", Your only legitimate
response would be a guttural laugh. If you answer that question to
a mortal then you are showing doubt. "Yes" incriminates you.

On the same token, having a coin in your pocket that says, "In God We
Trust" denotes you into being a non-believer. Simply, if you trust in
God then do not put the motto on your filthy lucre!

Of course, if you believe in the "Father" then you are exonerated,
i.e., we do not have coins that say "We Trust in the Father".

*All has a humorous side note ... All the king's men. The land of
Galilee is actually between nowadays Jerusalem and the Dead Sea. King
Herod the Great owned this land. "All" and "King Herod" are idioms.
