Atheists want to take the pledge of allegiance out of the schools because of the words "under God".  Those words were not in the original version of the pledge but were inserted in 1954.  I believe the pledge should be said each and every day.  In order to pacify the atheists just take out those two words.  While some may protest they should stay because we are a "Christian" nation, our diversity and strength should hold us together and we are pledging allegiance to our country, not our religion(s).
