It’s about time, although not necessarily for the reason I would have used.
For the first time ever, a federal appeals court Wednesday declared the Pledge of Allegiance unconstitutional because of the words “under God” added by Congress in 1954.
Although I agree with the court’s ruling, my complaint here has always been with the LOCATION of the added phrase. When spoken, “…one nation, under God, indivisible..” becomes “..one nation under God indivisible…”; indivisible sounds like it’s modifying God (God is indivisible?) and takes away from the original meaning, one nation indivisible (which you may recall was the subject of the Civil War).
(P.S. Speaking of which, the annoying neighbors have a U.S. flag in front of their house – with a Harley-Davidson on it.)
