Should 'Under God' Be in the Pledge of Allegiance? Twitter Says Yes

The controversy over whether the words “under God” should be included in the U.S. Pledge of Allegiance gets a decided thumbs up from many people on Twitter.

While some have pointed to the separation of church and state as a reason to drop that phrase from the pledge, on Twitter, the overwhelming posts come in support of saying the words that have been used since 1954.

Nice to hear the Pledge of Allegiance from the School near my house, and they still say Under God. Living in Liberal CA it's a surprise.

I stopped saying the pledge of allegiance when I found out that it means putting the country before god.

@JhHegg @10thAmendment I think it's crap! Aversion to God? Don't say His name. But pledge allegiance to your country or GTFO!
