It was a decision driven by Cold War politicking, nothing more.
They wanted to appear as the "god-fearing" nation as opposed to the evil enemy.
The "atheist" Soviet Union.
So the words "Under God" were added.
-
The very fact that "Under God" is considered a generic term to represent many RELIGIONS is half the problem, since an oath of loyalty to one's nation IMO should not include any blending of religion in it whatsoever.
Allowing a religious reference to feature in the pledge clearly discriminates against non-religious people who do not wish to pledge loyalty to a god of whatever religion, even though they may wish to pledge loyalty to their national flag.
The second part of the problem is the use of the pledge in public schools. Which IMO brings religious elements into a public institution.
If the Supreme Court did their jobs properly, then the pledge would be altered to remove the religious element, but sadly they won't because their own religious beliefs and positions will taint their decision which is unfair and downright incorrect.

Shawn Michaels should not have apologised. He is totally right. Having to get over a lumbering moron like Chris Masters who is pushed simply because he has "Lots- And-Lots-Of-Muscles", or as Jim Ross likes to say ad nauseum "Bah Gawwwd Keeeng, Dat Der Iz A Reeeeel HOSS!!!!!"
The Big Show is a disgrace and unless he loses weight and gets down to around 350 pounds, he is a worthless slob who is wasting his superhman natural abililties.
I wish the Dudley Boyz all the best success in TNA.

OMG,that's so sad!No, actually its very good.
The "Christian States Of America" would have been a nightmare.
Okay, the last 350-years of history never happened.I certainly wish they hadn't. The last three and a half centuries of history have seen some terrible atrocities and acts of human depravity and destruction.
Whatever makes you atheists feel better.I don't know whether to laugh at you, or cry for you.Pitiful.
Logic, rationality and fact make this particular Atheist feel better.
Don't cry for me......Argentina.
The Founding Fathers....From Christopher Columbus on down to George W. Bush, from the first Supreme Court justice to the last, from the First Continental Congress to today's Congress, all have acknowledged the Christian basis for this country.
I'm afraid you equate "A Nation With Many Christian Citizens" as being a "Christian Nation".
And that is a false premise from which you argue from.
Oh,wow...I hate repeating myself,but how sad.
Don't repeat falsehoods and misinformation.
It never works.
-
America wasn't founded a Christian nation?That's right.
Oh,really?Yes really.
The United States Of America is not a Christian Theocracy.
-
Watching La Liga.
Barcelona vs Valencia
-
I loathe and detest the gimmick that Vince and Stephanie have given Chavo.
Along with the "DDP Stalker" and "Boring Lance Storm" characters, this race-based character they have devised is a career killer for Chavo Guerrero who should find a way out of his contract and leave for Japan or TNA as soon as possible.

Waiting for dinner.

So do I.
I hate skinny women with bones sticking out.
Don't get me wrong, I don't like obesity either.
-
LOL!!!! :P
That should be interesting. :lol:
-
Troi looked nice from the episode where she started wearing her uniform again to the final episode of TNG.
Before and after that period, she was a mess.
-
Mr.T was outstanding in Rocky III.
IMO it's the best of the Rocky series.
-
I always wanted to see Apollo Creed vs Clubber Lang.
Now THAT would have been a great fight. :lol:
-
I still think the Starfleet Academy idea works best as an animated series.
Either way, it's all good. If the new movie works, then great.
If it doesn't, then Berman fails yet again, the franchise weakens further, and it means I STILL haven't seen any decent new Star Trek since the turn of the century.
-
Another thing about Troi I found annoying and unattractive was that horrible "part-Londoner part-Greek" accent she had.
Blerghhhhhhhh :lol:
-
The Borg are villains.
That is their reason for being in Star Trek.
Things like "Hugh The Friendly Borg" and "Seven Of Nine, Sex Bomb Sex Bomb...You're A Sex Bomb!!!!!" practically ruined the Borg as an effective villain.
Making the Borg allies and friends with the Federation is like the shark from Jaws becoming a vegetarian. It's just pointless.
When the next Star Trek series comes around, the Borg need revamping as a very dangerous threat once again. Like I've said before I think the "Reapers" from Blade II are the best way to think of the Borg. Agile, violent, vicious and totally single minded, more like vampires.
If they get you, you become one of them.
Now, that's scary.

I was just telling my mom the same thing the other day.
All the training and fight scenes from all the movies on one DVD.
Minus the boring crap with Paulie and the domestic stuff with "Yo Adrian"
-
I would watch it, but after one weak series, one mega flop series, one weak movie and one disaster of a movie, another poor performing Star Trek movie brings the franchise another step closer to the end.
-
The PPV was better than I expected.
I missed the women's match, I switched to "Rocky" on SkyCinema instead, so I guess I'll just add the Apollo Creed vs Rocky Balboa match to the PPV.
:P :lol:
-
So what kind of changes will the upgrade bring?
-
I am looking forward to dating other guys and am lining them up as we speak. Take a number boys, and one at a time!Sounds like you've made a full recovery.
-
Suffering with a bad stomach.
Just about to have a sandwich.
-
Nah, not for me.
Beverley Crusher was more attractive IMO.

A new Series
in Ten Forward

A Titan series would work best as a CGI-Animated series.
