Believe me, I had a really hard time with the Pledge when one day it said one thing and literally the next day it was different.

I also had a problem with "The Lord's Prayer" that we had to say every day in school. The one in my church (Southern Presbyterian) was different than the one in elementary school. I was yelled at in both places.

About the same time frame (1957) the words "In God We Trust" were inserted onto paper currency. It was on some coins from about the time of the Civil War.

Speaking of paper currency, I have been waiting for a long time for Harriet Tubman to replace Jackson on the 20 dollar bill. It has been eight years.
