8. Isn't it idolatry to pledge allegiance to a piece of cloth?
And is this country really "indivisible"? No, that issue wasn't settled in the Civil War. All that happened then was the states that were trying to secede were forced back into the Union literally at gunpoint. The issue of whether any state has the legal, constitutional right to secede has never been settled.

And is this really a country that has "liberty and justice for all"? HAH! Don't make me laugh!

Leave out the "under God" part and the pledge of allegiance is STILL just a piece of pure propaganda, start to finish.
