Which religion does "under God" endorse? Leaving the words out at the demands of an atheist endorses the religion of atheism, doesn't it? "All of the above" is just not always an option. Banning God endorses atheism more than "under God" endorses any particular religion.

The judicial activists strike again.

Not to mention that the Constitution itself must be declared unconstitutional because it uses the phrase "Year of our Lord"!

Actually, the DofI cites a "Creator", not God. So whether you believe that man was greated by nature or by a supernatural being, you're covered.
