Subject: Fwd: YES OR NO?This vote only requires you to forward it in order to be counted.As many of you are aware, the Knights of Columbus submitted to congress that the words "Under God" should be added to our pledge of allegiance. Both Houses of Congress passed the law and it was signed by President Eisenhower in 1954. The information below was based on a poll taken by NBC on what percentage should keep the words in our pledge verses the percent who want it removed.If you read this and agree that "under God should be left in the pledge, then just forward it to others and you have voted for it to be left in. If you delete it and don't forward it you are voting NO to "under God." Easy, huh?________________________________ Official Versions Over the Years1892"I pledge allegiance to my flag and the republic for which it stands: one nation indivisible with liberty and justice for all."1892 to 1923"I pledge allegiance to my flag and to the republic for which it stands: one nation indivisible with liberty and justice for all."1923 to 1924"I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States and to the republic for which it stands: one nation indivisible with liberty and justice for all."1924 to 1954"I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America , and to the republic for which it stands; one nation indivisible with liberty and justice for all."1954 to Present"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."________________________________ A Shock to NBC NEWS...This is not sent for discussion. If you agree, forward it...If you don't, delete it. I don't want to know one way or the other. By my forwarding it, you know how I feel.86% to keep God in the Pledge of Allegiance and 14% against. That is a pretty 'commanding' public response.I was asked to send this on ONLY if I agreed or delete if I didn't.Now it is your turn. It is said that 86% of Americans believe the word God should stay. Therefore, I have a very hard time understanding why there is such a mess about having God in the Pledge of Allegiance.Why should our Nation cater to 14%?If you agree, pass this on. If not, simply delete.IN GOD WE TRUST! INDEED!

"So help me God!" ... Thx Ron W!
AGREE OR DELETE
This is by a daughter of a murdered couple in Raytown , MO , who owned a Bible and Bookstore on 63rd street . She says:
When I had to testify at the murder trial of my parents a week ago, I was asked to raise my right hand... The bailiff started out "Do you swear to tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth?"
I stood there and waited but she said nothing. She said "Do you?"
I was so stunned I blurted out "What happened to 'so help me God'?"
She came back with, "Do you?" I replied yes, but I was perplexed.
Then the judge said . "You can say that if you want to."
I stopped, raised my right hand, and finished with "So help me God!"
I told my son and daughter that when it came time for them to testify, they should do the same.
I don't know what can be done about it, but it's time for us to step up and DO something.
NBC this morning had a poll on this question.. They had the highest number of responses that they have ever had for one of their polls, and the percentage was the same as this:
86%to keep the words, 14% against... That is a pretty 'commanding' public response.
I was asked to send this on if I agreed... or delete if I didn't.
Now it is your turn. It is said that 86% of Americans believe in God.
Therefore, I have a very hard time understanding why there is such a mess about having "In God We Trust" on our money and having God in the Pledge of Allegiance.
Why is America -- our nation -- catering to this 14%?
If you agree, pass this on, if not, simply delete....

Perhaps Then You Are Part Of The Problem
