Those pesky public schools
....
I pledge allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands, one Nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.
One Nation, under God of the Old and New Covenants, or some other God and some other Covenant Law aka the 10 Commandments?
Nations need a cohesive culture to survive. As I used to hear Michael Savage repeat: border, language, culture.
Our freedom of religion springs from our nation’s Protestant roots. Specifically, our nation primarily exists because of Christians fleeing religious persecution (usually by other “Christians”).
Most religions are not very tolerant of the concept of religious freedom.
The first public schools in America, and nearly all of our colleges, were established with the goal of equipping students with a thorough knowledge of the Bible.
Somehow, we’ve gone from that to government-enforced religion of humanism. This includes indoctrinating children politically and morally.
