90% of the world believes in a supreme being; so it's still applicable today.

Jesus died on the cross to show us that BDSM is a legitimate form of love.
There is only one truth and it is that people do have penises of different sizes and one of them is the longest.
And what if it read "under Allah"?
Estne parva Jack laeta hodie?
Quote from: Semicolon on October 03, 2013, 04:43:23 PMAnd what if it read "under Allah"? So what if it did? It doesn't. It says God. It doesn't say the Christian god of The Holy Bible, but everyone knows that's what it means, and it's still applicable today. Personally not bothered by it, and couldn't care either way. It's not my decision nor want it to be. I'll say the Pledge of Allegiance however I like.
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof
That's completely understandable.

Don't see why everyone hates it. Probably the "under God" thing. People should calm down I see that as historically valuable. That's how people talked back then, whether the progressives want to admit it or not. Yeah people should really calm down with the "I hate god" shit. I am an atheist, myself. I consider the bible to be mostly a funny book to read, but I don't hate Christians. I don't want to destroy their religion and remove it from society. That would be psychotic.Back when? The Pledge of Allegiance is relatively new.

In 42, my dad wasn't even born yet.
Its still how people talked in 1892 dude, and I have no desire to erase that history. Do you?
Something as huge as changing the pledge should be left to the public vote; at the moment, doubting the pledge would change. It's not a law; no one is forced to say it.
