NBC's pledge of allegiance edit causes stir

I'm not sure what people mean when they say, "We've lost our morals." If anything history has shown us that a church-state can be as corrupt and oppressive as any other from of government. Our Founding Fathers realized this form of oppression and created a government that would not interfere with our spiritual beliefs.

I'm not going to lie the attention has been great.. )

But it didn't come cheap. We took advantage of one of the limited advertising spots that were available.

We're excited about becoming a sponsor and look forward to meeting many of the OSA members on the board.

i guess it really depends on what freedom from religion means to the person. i jumped to the conclusion that you maybe one of the people who believe the wording "freedom from religion" is actually written somewhere in our founding. alot of people who believe that think any mention of god infringes on a right of the person who does not believe in a god of any religion. i dont see how saying one nation under god infringes on your freedom. if you dont wanna say it, dont. you are not being forced to join a church. your not being told to profess jesus as your savior. i could not agree more, you should not have to worship my god, your god, or your lack of a god if you do not want to. the wording under god has more of a historical meaning to most people anyway.

The history of "under God" in the POA only goes back about 50 years.
