I pledge allegience to my flag and to the republic for which it stands, one nation, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.
That's the original pledge, Chris. It's changed over time as the people demanded it. The pledge changed in 54 because the people wanted it to be changed, not because Congress had a whim to do it. Adding "under God" brings it more in line with all of our other national rituals.
