P.S. on the Pledge of Allegiance
The words "one Nation under God" were added to the Pledge in 1954. Why? A campaign led by the Knights of Columbus, (a Catholic organization), lead Congress to add the words. Ironically enough, I bet all the anti-Catholics right now are trying their hardest to see this decision of the 9th U.S. Circuit Court reversed though. If the situation wasn't so horribly pathetic, I'd say it was funny.
