Yeah it’s a weird fucking ritual isn’t it? It made a couple of my teachers mad in highschool that I refused to stand and pledge. It sounds edgy, but it’s such a weird brainwashy thing to do that
Looking back, it is really weird. Do they still do "one nation, under god?" As someone who is no longer religious at all, I find this weird, too.
It wasn't always like that, either. The "under god" part was added by Eisenhower in the 50s during the red scare. He added the "In God We Trust" thing to the money around the same time.
Shouldn't this upset Christians, then? To use the Lord's name in vain against communism?
When it involves money, Christians are pretty hypocrite
