I went to a Catholic grammar school. I remember everyday before class began we would all stand up and say our prayers and right after the prayers we all placed our hand over our hearts and recited the Pledge of Allegiance. We stood by our desks and faced the American flag, and proudly shouted the words of the pledge. “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.”
I had difficulty with some words, indivisible became invisible. I thought I was singing about something invisible.. But no matter the misunderstanding the one thing we all understood was this song was honoring America and we were Americans. We said the Pledge of Allegiance without failure every morning. The one thing we were taught was God and Country.
What happened to all that? What happened to God and Country? Why are they trying to get rid of God. Why?
Recently, NBC aired their rendition of the Pledge of Allegiance, during the US Open golf tournament, and Oops, NBC accidently cut out a part of the pledge. You know the part that says, “One nation under God”. Accidentally? Really?
In case you don’t know there are a small minority of people trying to eliminate “One nation under God”, from the pledge. So I beg the question, if we are no longer one nation under God, than we are one nation under WHAT?
Who are we under? Take God out of the equation and what have you left?
