PICK ONE?

The New York Times has an interesting article about our nation's Pledge.

The debate over the use of the word God in America is nothing new in this day and age. It did catch me off guard to learn that the word hasn't always been in the Pledge of Allegiance though. It was only added in 1954.

The words were added to separate our country from communist countries. I'm trying to wrap my mind around what could have changed so drastically in the last 50 years to bring us full circle to taking the word out again.
