"One nation, still under . . . "

By Paul Greenberg

"Out of the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals in San Francisco comes the latest decision in the never-ending tussle over religion, the Constitution, church-and-state and all that.


The 2-to-1 decision found the Pledge of Allegiance constitutionally kosher, even though it contains the words "under G0d." The only thing surprising about the decision is that it should have come out of the Ninth Circuit, for in the past that court has been a refuge and a sanctuary for those who want to scrub American law of any references to the holy.


But this time the court endorsed G0d 2 to 1, which must be a comfort to the Almighty."
