" but if you are uncomfortable saying "God" in the pledge, substitute Allah, Zeus, Buddah, your elephant, (not trying to poke fun at anything, just giving a way exaggerated example of how I feel) or whatever god you worship in it's place"
The point is, the ORIGINAL pledge didn't ask ANYONE to pay homage to anything other than the Nation State. "God" (three headed goat) was ADDED on a POLITICAL whim! Asking that "God" be removed from the pledge so as it can be returned to it's orginal intention (a pledge to the State alone) seams a reasonable request. No?
