Quote:let's not re-write it either. The primary reason for people coming to America was to flee religious persecution in Europe. As for the statement that the constitution was written with people who fear God in mind and not a wholly secular society, I suggest you recheck your recent history and the arguments being made to alter the constitution to better fit a 'modern' society. That the Pledge of Allegiance may have been created by someone who didn't have the best interest of this country at heart when he wrote it does not alter the fact that the Pledge has been a cornerstone of what the nation has stood for... even if 'one nation under God' has become a joke.

Yes they came here to escape a system where the church and the state where one. That's never been good anywhere in the history of mankind!


You can't claim the constitution was written for only a specific type of people that would violate the entire purpose of the constitution. Find me where it says we the Christian people do here by....if anything the founding fathers understood different cultures and belief systems had to be protected thus the whole separation of church and state, it protects both entities.


As for the pledge you should just give up on claiming the pledge as a cornerstone of evidence for a religiously exclusive nation. I mean come on man it was written with nazi salutes and all it's socialist propaganda always has been always will be.
