4063750308?profile=original  America’s heartland must fight to keep “Under God” in the Pledge of Allegiance

 

Fifty-nine years ago young children all across America walked into their respective schoolrooms and with pride bursting in their young chests they recited the Pledge of Allegiance. There was a new and deeper meaning reflected in the addition to this pledge because the words “under God” were inserted to read, in full, “one nation under God.”

Since that momentous year millions of elementary school students all across America have recited this pledge – some hoping that their teacher will select them to stand in front of the classroom to proudly lead the recitation. Yet deep within the hardened hearts of some in America – led by infamous atheists like Madalyn Murray O’Hair – a concerted effort began to tear God away from children in public schools.

That effort has been renewed by an atheist couple in Massachusetts. They are attacking the reciting of the Pledge of Allegiance’s “under God” phrase. They claim in their Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court case that, the words are exclusionary to their atheist children and violate their kids’ rights under the Equal Rights Amendment of the Massachusetts Constitution.

One has to understand the full dimension and scale of this nearly sixty plus year assault upon maintaining God in the Pledge of Allegiance which began with infamous atheist Madalyn Murray O’Hair’s frontal assault in the 1940’s and 1950’s. She waged a successful effort to remove prayer from public schools, and assisted the growing effort of the secularization of America. The goal was to create a socialist nation which undermined and removed the basic biblical principles of character and heartland values the nation’s children.

In 2004, 50 years had passed since the adoption of “under God” in the pledge and O’Hair’s war on God in America, when the U.S. Supreme Court took up a case that challenged the phrase. The court ruled unanimously ruled that the phrase “under God” may remain in the Pledge of Allegiance as recited in public school classrooms. Nine years ago, many felt the nation’s heritage of respecting God in the Pledge of Allegiance was safe. It was not.

 

In 2007, just three years later, the Texas Attorney General Greg Abbott filed a brief with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit defending the constitutionality of the Texas Pledge of Allegiance which includes ‘one state under God’. Attorney General Abbott stated then, “Just as it is perfectly constitutional for Texas schoolchildren to pledge their allegiance to ‘one nation under God,’ it is also constitutional for students to pledge their allegiance to ‘one state, under God.” The Texas Attorney General was successful.

 

One has to ask, to what end and for what purpose does removal of God from the state of Texas public schools or from America’s national Pledge of Allegiance or removing his son Jesus Christ from the public square announcing his birth mean?

 

The clear and convincing purpose of atheists and secularists who denounce God and denounce Christ is to extinguish America’s connection to God in our spirit, in our heart, and most importantly in our soul. The purpose is to eradicate God and Christ and the principles and values that they exemplify as if they never existed.

  • Satan and insanity abound and the sheeple nod their heads like bobbleheads.....very tired of this commie crap....I want the same country I grew up in with freedom....for my children and grandkids...

  • Lynda M -You are more than welcome; I didn't know I had a "fan club", but thank you, for that.  IMHO, a couple hundred MILLION Americans (at least) share our same view, as far as the Pledge and our firm belief in our Savior and God the Father!  They cannot take that away from US, no matter how hard they try.

  • So, these are some of the "coexist" crowd, are they not?  Why in the h*(() can they not "coexist" with the fact that the majority of people in this country do believe in God, and just live with that?  What does that take away from them?  Squat.

  • My allegiance is to God. I bow to no man.

  • Not a surprising development in view of the fact that Atheism is the official US Government state religion.   We must all bow to the Atheist GOD, the Father of all Lies.

  • Good for you, Gene! Me, too!

  • At my age ask me if I care what the damn LIBERAL SUPREME COURT HAS TO SAY ABOUT THE PLEDGE of ALLEGIANCE, I will always include "ONE NATION UNDER GOD. If you or someone else has a problem with my recitation "SUCK IT UP".
