Are you insane? this country is way too diverse to have it back to a one-religion nation, we've already taken the march towards multi-culturalism. god also doesn't come down to just christianity. god is the god of any religion. it doesn't say "under god of christianity", just "under god". i'm sure there's plenty of other countries that have pledges of allegeances that pertain to a god if not a certain god, and the people who live there that don't believe in that god really don't care. I don't think the "under god" part is going to be taken out, mainly on historic terms, and I don't think that they will push christianity at all on other religions, because that'd give this country a bad image and we'd lose many friends, and lost many citizens, and build up many riots, many dangers to the government and probably to those who call themselves christians, it might even spark up inside-america terrorists if they're lucky. So don't look too foward to the government taking out under god or pushing religions.
