The pledge of allegiance has absolutely nothing to do with religion. It is to show patriotism to our country and respect for it. Those that are so against religion and that want to come up with their own beliefs have lost sense of what should or should not be so as long as they can stand up and only believe as they believe. Under God is in the pledge because that was what our country was built upon. Where do you think that our judicial system came from? Honestly think, where would we have gotten understanding of or basic rights and wrongs if it were not from the ten commandments? But, off my rant, as far as he pledge of allegiance goes, I believe that there should be an option that if people do not believe in the USA then don't restate the pledge if you do then say it proudly!
