I agree with one about the issue of separation of church and state. This what I see, is the protection of the church or church is separate from the power of the gvrnmnt. Bec gvrmnt reverent the Higher Authority, who is God Himself. As of Pledge, about "under God", sound like God bit them and take a big issue of it. Well, as one said, since under God, is the the reason JW won't say the plede,, truth is, whether if their is under God or not, they won't do it anyway, bec their beliefs is its idolatory for pledge to the flag. In the early American history, even athiest doesn't believe in God, but still revere those who worship God. Whether they keep or remove Kunder God", God is still in this country. Remember, Daniel, Shadrach,Mechach and Obednego been facing challenges under King Nebachednezzar. So, there is some things I learned, whether gvnmnt forbid for us to worship God or not, each person make a choice, but that will leave the judgement of God what each of us decide. So, all the clashes won't go anywhere. Yeah, if a person refuse to believe, than that's a person decision. True, we must speak out, but must be appropriate way than going out in violent ways. But as for me, I do support to keep "under God". If not agree, I respect of yours.
