It most certainly does! The Knights of Columbus, a Roman Catholic organization, were instrumental in getting the phrase "under God" added to the Pledge. Are you telling me that a group of Roman Catholics pushed for a reference to a generic god, rather than their own? I think not!
Given that the phrase does refer to a specific god (the Christian God), I think it should be removed. Further, for those who do not believe in any god, any reference to any god should be excluded completely.
