the nations spiritual deterioration has
the nations spiritual deterioration has always saddened me. yesterday the 9th district federal appeals court made a decision that, affecting my state directly, saddens me even more.
i agree how inappropriate it would be to have the pledge say 'one nation under Allah' or 'under Buddah', but lets face it - the majority of Americans believe in a 'higher power' (however generalized and removed from the God of abraham and noah) whom they call "God".
but i guess to be reeeally pc, lawmakers could follow the route of aa and could make it say 'one nation under a higher power'. helps portray the impersonal god that so many americans believe in.
no matter what legislatures decree, i will always subscribe first to God. the God of abraham, isaac, and jacob. and my children will learn the pledge with the phrase 'under God'.
