It also breaks up the flow of the pledge IMO. I think that it sounds better without "under god" -- that phrase creates an awkward pause that wasn't there before.

Sorry...but you're an idiot...

Don't spew your crap just because you don't know how to recite the pledge in a rhythmic manner.

Oh, really? In what year did you first say the Pledge of Allegiance?

And that creates a problem for what reason?

Exactly, plus it adds a divisive tone that has no place in what is supposed to be a unifying statement. Unless of course we're saying that Buddhists, Hindus, Wiccans, Zoroasterians, agnostics, and atheists aren't "real" Americans.

Or think about this.....a Moslem can say it without prejudice ("Allah", after all, is Arabic for "God") and an Orthodox Jew might have qualms speaking the name of God. (okay...I'm modell stirring here....hehe).
