Default One nation under God

Should be taken out of the pledge of allegiance because we pledge allegience to the flag.

Not a mythical so called God that created the flat earth with a solid sky dome that is hard as a molten mirror and ordered slaughters to his creation.

There is no undisbutable proof that this God even exists,we have proof that people believed in mythical gods that never existed thats all.

Well I agree but I think that a better argument that does not rely on law but a common sense of justice is that it's not the Government's place to teach my kids that a god of any kind exists.

It's not up to the government to tell anyone that any god of any kind exists.

Frankly, I don't pledge allegiance to the flag. I pledge allegiance to the Constitution of the United States. That's my bible.
