i've always thought it should be taken out. our country is supposed to be a diverse one where all religions are accepted and cherished; so why must we say "under God" when a lot of people don't believe in God or believe in a religion other than Christianity? I'm atheist, and when we say the pledge in the morning i say everything BUT "under god" because i choose not too. some people look at me weird but i could care less...not my problem.
