The pledge however is socialist in origin - see my post about the author - Francis Bellamy.
A socialist may have wrote it, but it's sure way out of step and to the right with today's leftist liberal.
If Bellamy were alive today, would he be called a socialist if he had the same political views?
Yet contrary to socialist doctrine no one is required or compelled to repeat this pledge; so what... in the context of today's ruling... is your point?
Please explain. Thanks.
