Page 21: I pledge allegiance…

Fact

Page 22: I pledge allegiance…

The original pledge was to have the word equality in it but they

wouldn’t because of women and African Americans

Page 23: I pledge allegiance…

Fact

Page 24: I pledge allegiance…

The pledge has been changed at least every 50 years since 1892

Page 25: I pledge allegiance…

Reality?

• Should the pledge have been changed so many times?

• Was there really that much wrong with it?

Page 26: I pledge allegiance…

YES

Page 27: I pledge allegiance…

Because it was to be a pledge like a communist pledge of allegiance

Page 28: I pledge allegiance…

But After 1954….

Page 29: I pledge allegiance…

NO

Page 30: I pledge allegiance…

So do the words under god really effect us that much considering…

Page 31: I pledge allegiance…

To win the revolution most soldiers looked to God for inspiration

Page 32: I pledge allegiance…

No matter which deity, there has always been an influence of God in America

Page 33: I pledge allegiance…

If that’s not convincing…

Page 34: I pledge allegiance…

We could go back to….

Page 35: I pledge allegiance…

Communist idealistics

Page 36: I pledge allegiance…

So why do we want God out of the pledge?

???????????????

Page 37: I pledge allegiance…

It refers to the existence of a deity, who is omnipotent and omniscient.

It refers to a male deity, as female deities are referred to as Goddesses and are not taken into consideration in the Pledge.

Further, the phrase refers to monotheism, indicating the presence of a single deity ruling over America.

It also gives the indication that majority

of the Americans believe in the existence of a God, who interfered

with the events occurring on Earth,

thereby guiding America in the direction He

wishes.

Its stupid

It sounds funnyBecause I don’t believe in god

It doesn’t support my feministic ways

Page 38: I pledge allegiance…

Nonsense right?

Page 39: I pledge allegiance…

Do you have a good reason?

Page 40: I pledge allegiance…

Think about this…

Page 41: I pledge allegiance…

Do you fix something when

its broken?

Neither do I

Page 42: I pledge allegiance…

So if the pledge isn’t broken why

fix it?

Page 43: I pledge allegiance…

So we can go back to…

Page 44: I pledge allegiance…

Not dedicating something special to Christopher Columbus

Page 45: I pledge allegiance…

King George having power

Page 46: I pledge allegiance…

Women not being able to vote

Page 47: I pledge allegiance…

Still segregating
