Pledge of Allegiance

That pledge was written by Francis Bellamy, a yankee, in 1892 to indoctrinate school children. Here are his words: "The true reason for allegiance to the Flag is the 'republic for which it stands'. ...And what does that vast thing, the Republic mean? It is the concise political word for the Nation - the One Nation which the Civil War was fought to prove....”

I object to "Indivisible". Secession was a good idea--- and it sounds pretty good now. I pledge allegiance to God Almighty and nothing else. God bless America and God bless Texas. And a tip of the hat to Arizona.
