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’m 42 years old. That is how we said it- every damn day that we were in school.
what the hell kind of school did you attend, if you excluded the boldface language?

I’m interested in knowing if any of you, personally, have ever been taught to say it without “under God”. Thanks in advance.
every man who fought in World War II learned the pledge without those words. I think America produced some fairly impressive young men without invoking a deity in our national pledge.

America also produced white Southern Democrat-dominated state legislatures and municipality leaders that disenfranchised and removed political and economic gains made by African Americans during the Reconstruction era. They also enforced Jim Crow laws into the 1960s.

A modest proposal:
quote:

I pledge allegiance to the Constitution of the United States of America, to the republic for which it stands and through the flag which symbolizes it.
