For you knuckleheads who do not realize that the original Pledge of Allegiance, written in 1892 by Francis Bellamy, did not contain the words under God. Those words were added in 1954. Some speculate the introduction of under God in the 1950s was done during the Cold War, as a way to differentiate the U.S. from the concept of communist state atheism. The point here is, Francis Bellamy, who was the author and also a Christian Minister, did not feel the need to add it to the original pledge. Know your history, or become a product of it.
