Your posts reach a climax? Dear me, my literary skills are poorer than I thought.

I'm sorry, I don't see "under God" as a huge issue here (no more than "In God we trust"). While it is regrettable that those little words exist in the first place, there are far more pressing problems in the education system (especially in view of these recent law upheavals about separation of church and state). It really doesn't matter how often those words are said, because they don't offer a lasting impact upon the education of a child (no more than "In God we trust" does for the rest of the population). I understand the symbolic importance, but it still seems like an inconsequential target.
