Thoughts on this?
I'm not sure how I feel about it. In one hand I don't think our country should identify with any religion, but on the other hand, I don't think we need to be so steadfast on removing everything that has religious connotation to it since I believe it's otherwise harmless. I get that "under god" may not represent what some of you believe, but there's also a law stating that you can't force anyone to pledge allegiance either. As for changing historical traditions, the article states that the "under god" part was actually added in 1954 so it's not exactly old old history in relation to other American traditions. I guess to me it's not that big a deal since it's a voluntary thing.
