Francis Bellamy *a Baptist minister* wrote the Pledge of Allegiance in 1892 and marketed the idea of reciting it in schools. Because brain-washing children ONLY in church just wasnt enough for him, I suppose. It wasnt adopted by Congress until 1942. The phrase under God was added in 1954 as a way of differentiating ourselves from the godless communists. The Cold War is long over, but the God reference remains. I just read on Reddit about a school girl who says under clouds instead of under God. She told her daddy, because not everyone is religious. Good for you, little girl, good for you. https://m.youtube/watch?v=618U-_8o31k
