No I won't go sit down somewhere. I just don't recite it and it has nothing to do with the phrase Under God. And as for me and my house we also believe in God but we also believe in the Bill of Rights and separation of church and state.
And very honestly, the God in whom I believe is not so vain as to be upset that a phrase using his name may be eliminated from a pledge that is really about allegiance to a flag and a republic (which by the way brought our ancestors here as slaves.)
It is not about allegiance to Him.
