"I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands, one Nation, under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all."


Praise the Lord.  The Supreme Court has decided that Michael Newdow did not have a case.  "Under God" will remain in our pledge!

 

Michael Newdow

Michael Newdow: "As I'm standing in line, I'm looking at the twenty dollar bill, and it says 'In God We Trust.' What the heck is this doing here?  It just had never hit me.  I looked at the ten dollar bill. 'In God We Trust.'  And the five and the one and all the change.  I thought, 'What is going on here?  I don't trust in God.  I'm an American.'"

"As I thought about it, I realized that the case to get 'under God' out of the pledge was stronger."

"Michael Newdow, an atheist, said that the pledge harmed his daughter's First Amendment rights because she had to 'watch and listen as her state-employed teacher in her state-run school leads her classmates in a ritual proclaiming that there is a God, and that ours is one nation under God.'"

Breaking revelations surrounding the case have led people to question the legitimacy of Newdow's suit.  Based on information obtained by CPI News, a startling new fact has been unearthed regarding the personal opinions of Michael Newdow's daughter and her mother.  According to information, the man who filed the legal suit in June did so against the wishes of his daughter and her mother, both of which identify themselves as Christians and attend a Calvary Chapel.

By identifying themselves as Christians, the daughter presumably didn't become uncomfortable when reciting or objected to the Pledge of Allegiance - an action that directly contradicts the essence of the lawsuit.  A Sunday evening announcement by Pastor Chuck Smith, asking for prayers from his congregation regarding the Pledge of Allegiance case, has revealed more new developments. The pastor of Calvary Chapel in Costa Mesa told his church that, 'The little girl, over whom the suit was filed, happens to attend Calvary Chapel, in Elk Grove. She is Christian, her mother is a Christian.'

This new development suggests the possibility that the court's decision was based on fraudulent facts.  Michael A. Newdow claimed that reciting the Pledge violated his daughter's constitutional rights, and made her uncomfortable.

But regarding the suit's claims that Newdow's daughter was offended by the Pledge of Allegiance, Pastor Chuck Smith said that it is 'Totally false, she loves the Lord.'  If Michael A. Newdow's daughter were indeed a Christian, it could mean (as Pastor Smith observed), 'That this whole suit was filed on a totally false premise.'"


Referring to the 9th Circuit's ruling regarding "under God" being unconstitutional, Tom Daschle said, "This decision is just nuts."


President George W. Bush said, "The whole thing is ridiculous."


The Deism Myth

Atheists, agnostics, and deists like to claim that America's founders were deists.  Is this true, though?  There is an easy way to tell.  Are their quotes and words indicating an impersonal, unknowable god that has nothing to do with everyday affairs?

The god of deism is not the biblical God.  Certain quotes that are vague can seemingly refer to a deistic god, however the specific quotes that contradict the qualities of a deistic god must interpret the vague quotes.

When we look at the statements from the Founding Fathers above, we can see that they address Christianity, the biblical God, a personal God, a knowable God, a reigning God, etc.  These are not words that are conducive to deism.  They contradict deism and reveal a belief in the biblical God of Christianity.  Consequently, it is a myth that most of America's founders were deists.  In fact, atheists, agnostics, and deists will be hard-pressed to prove that even one of our founders was a deist.
