Banning the Pledge...


(Any space filled with .... is really just me ranting in ways I probably shouldn't publish- or be thinking on a Sunday morning. But you get my drift.)

Ok, now I know better then to read political things on Sunday mornings, because I get so riled up, but this just..... Takes the cake in a very BAD way.

I'd like to give this Jason Bellhead character a large piece of my mind... and possibly more. Maybe in an 'trapt in a elevator' type situation....

Especially this coming out this weekend is just....

And, in conclusion-

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.

    Just a bit of an FYI - the pledge was originally written without any reference to god in it.

    But it was written by a socialist... so, to separate the US from the godless Communists, the US government added "under god" a decade or two later, during the Cold War. I forget the actual dates, otherwise I'd put them in.

    So really... adding the "under god" was just anti-commie propaganda...

    ...And anti-communism is bad because.... Why?

    :confused:

    (However, since the original founding documents of this country contained the word God/Creater/Etc, so I have a hard time believing adding the phrase in had any founders rolling in their graves.)

    "The day will come when the mystical generation of Jesus, by the supreme being as his father in the womb of a virgin, will be classed with the fable of the generation of Minerva in the brain of Jupiter."

    Wasn't he the fellow who penned the declaration of independence?

    Maggie, you are the bestest. :hugs:

    (Like, I said before, you should still write 'columns' even after you are all officially graduated and everything!)

    Suddenly taking a history minor? I am so out of date! I must call you at nine on the dot so we can catch up!
