From this day forward, the millions of our school children will daily proclaim in every city and town, every village and rural school house, the dedication of our nation and our people to the Almighty.... in this way we shall constantly strengthen those spiritual weapons which forever will be our country's most powerful resource, in peace or in war. - Eisenhower
The reason for inclusion of "...under god..." is and was absurd. Under intent of the Presbyterian vow, how are all men to proclaim loyalty to our country without claiming loyalty to another's deity. We need to make clear the United States of America is not driving for religious war. We need to make clear that we are not indoctrinating our youth. We must invite the teaching of the original with allegiance to nation and flag.
