Even worse, some versions of the pledge make you swear "under god" which is fucked up. Christian Nationalists are what is destroying america.

~~Good~~ How can there be different versions of the pledge? Is it that each state technically has their own pledge?

Under god is part of the pledge from my understanding. Beyond that, other states do have their own pledges.

The "under god" portion was added in the 50s or 60s, same with adding "in god we trust" to all currency
