arguably, the only doubt triggered is the added words "under God" in 1954.
side note: israel arab citizens protest over the same issue now.

What is going on with Israel Arab citizens?

So they don't have any problem with the flag, only God?  Do they know their children recite it everyday at school?

Oh, no, I just read a review article about a book on how the pledge came to be and its evolution.  :-)

Wow, that is a computer savvy person with a creative mind talking.  :-)

这么多人选择不效忠,一种可能是“one nation under God"给闹的; 另一种可能则是“经济移民”。 如果是前者,其实并非需要你以基督徒的方式去认同,因此不愿效忠?i don't get it. 当然,择葱先生和mr. shallowpond那样的经济移民老中里绝不在少。 这样的poll结果就不意外了。

I agree that "one nation under God"  doesn't mean one has to be a Christian.  Some people automatically disagree whenever they see "God". It is really a misunderstanding.  When the Chinese say 天赋人权.  God is definitely in that four characters.
