I really resent the phrase 'under God' being inserted into the Pledge of Allegiance through a campaign by the Knights of Columbus. I was in second grade when the change was made, and even then it offended me. The nation had done just fine with the existing pledge up until then. Why did someone want me to make a public affirmation of something so personal and private? Maybe Congress determined that the new Pledge would be a good way to catch the undercover Communist second-graders?
As for those who would force me to live my life according to their particular holy book - get too pushy about it and I'll send you somewhere to have a nice long chat with your god.
