pledge of allegiance

My husband brought up a curious point about the pledge of allegiance by quoting “one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all” and asking me what the meant. We continued to hashing it out having a little fun with it

I am a public high school student, and every day I hear the Pledge of Allegiance. And daily, I wonder why I am forced to listen to the words "under God" being uttered in this speech every day by my classmates. Why must I, an atheist, say "under God?" I don't believe in God.

For years students have said the pledge of allegiance everyday at school, very few of them choosing not to do so. At one time the Supreme Court ruled against students who did not recite the pledge, making it a requirement. Since then, the Supreme Court has changed its decision and made it a choice.

The Pledge of Allegiance or a Pledge to Hypocrisy?
Volume 1, Hypocrisy at Home

"I pledge allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands, one Nation, under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all."

Yes, I said it. I don't believe in the Pledge of Allegiance.

But before you scroll all the way down and post a comment saying that I'm crazy and you can't believe I'm posting this on here, let me explain.

In my English class yesterday we were in a rush to go take our senior picture.  My English teacher didn't want us to fall behind the other classes so she rushed through what she wanted us to do for the over the weekend for homework.  She said she loved the pledge but that we were'nt going to stand up for it today, we were going to listen to our assignment.  I was fine with sitting through, but
